Recipe Intro
Pancetta is an Italian type of bacon produced from belly of pork which is seasoned, then rolled up like a salami and dry cured. Flat slabs of pancetta are also available and this is normally how you’d find it in Italy. Here in Dubai and back home in the US, you can buy it pre-packed and either in cubes (cubetti di pancetta) or slices. Enjoy this wonderful pancetta recipe, but if you can’t get pancetta, just use bacon.
Zucchini Pasta w. Pancetta
- 2 yellow zucchinis
- 2 Roma tomatoes, cubed
- 2-3 cloves garlic, pressed
- 2 stalks celery, diced
- 2-3 tablespoons fresh sage, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3/4 cup pancetta
- 1 can chopped tomatoes (BPA-free can)
- Salt and pepper
- Fresh parsley for garnish
The process…
Make the zucchini noodles using a spiralizer. Set aside.
To make the sauce, bring the olive oil to medium heat in a saute pan. Add the garlic, celery and panacetta. Cook for 5 to 8 minutes. Add the sage, Roma tomatoes, canned tomatoes, and a few pinches of salt. Simmer for 10 to 15 minutes. To prepare the zucchini noodles, bring another saute pan to medium heat. Add a spoon of olive oil. Cook the zucchini noodles with a pinch of salt for about 2 minutes. They should soften slightly but should not start releasing their water.
