Comment préparer Basil Lovers Tomato Cream Penne
- Cook penne pasta according to package directions. Drain the pasta, reserving about 1/2 cup of pasta water, and set aside.
- While pasta cooks, dice the pancetta. In a large skillet, cook the pancetta over medium heat for 6-8 minutes, or until crispy. Remove the pancetta from the skillet and set aside, reserving the rendered fat in the skillet.
- Add olive oil to the skillet if needed (if there isn't enough rendered pancetta fat). Add minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds, until fragrant.
- Pour in marinara sauce and white wine. Bring the sauce to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 4 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Remove the sauce from heat and stir in half-and-half, half of the chopped basil, salt, and pepper.
- Add the cooked penne to the sauce and toss to combine. Add a little reserved pasta water if needed to adjust consistency.
- Transfer the pasta to a serving platter or bowl. Top with the crispy pancetta and the remaining fresh basil.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
