Ingredients:
2 Tbsp Salt
16 oz. Spaghetti Pasta
1 lb. Thick-Cut Bacon, Chopped
3 Tbsp. Extra-Virgin Olive Oil
1 Cup Red Onion, Diced
1 Tsp. Red Chili Flakes
3 Tbsp Garlic, Minced
2 Cups Roma Tomatores, Diced
1/4 Cup Red Wine
4 Tbsp. Basil, Chopped
1/4 Cup Freshly Grated Parmesan
Salt and Pepper
Directions:
Cook pasta according to package directions. I always add a couple tbsp of salt.
In a large saute pan, over medium heat, saute bacon until crispy. Remove to drain on a paper towel and remove 3/4 of the bacon fat from pan. Add extra-virgin olive oil, onions, and red chili flakes. Cook until onions are translucent, add garlic, cook for 2 minutes and then add tomatoes. Saute for 5 minutes and then deglaze with wine.
Drain pasta and add to the tomato mixture pan. Add basil and bacon. Toss with parmesam, and add salt and pepper to taste.
This is a great and quick meal to make.
