1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/2 lb thickly sliced pancetta, cut crosswise into 1/4-inch strips

1/4 cup drained sun-dried tomato packed in oil, cut into strips
2 tablespoons garlic, very finely chopped

  • Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  • Add the basil and season with salt and pepper.
  • Meanwhile, in a pot of boiling salted water, cook the spaghetti until al dente.
  • Drain the spaghetti, reserving 1/2 cup of the cooking water.
  • Add the spaghetti to the skillet along with 1/4 cup of the cooking water and toss over medium heat until combined.
  • Transfer to a bowl and serve, passing the Parmesan at the table.
