Ingredients
- 3 Bacon thick slices
- 2 garlic cloves, finely minced
- 1 tsp red pepper flakes
- 1/2 tsp black pepper fresh cracked
- 1 radicchio small head, halved, cored, and thinly sliced
- 8 ounces pasta I used Busiati, but any other shape will work; penne or fusilli will be fine
- 1/2 cup walnut halves toasted in a 350F oven 10-15 minutes, then chopped
- 1/4 cup gruyere cheese shredded
- 1/4 cup Parmesan Cheese shredded
Instructions
- Cut the bacon in small slices and cook in a dutch oven or large skillet until the fat has renedered and the bacon is crisp. Add the garlic, red pepper flakes, and black pepper to the pan and saute for a minute more.
- Add the radicchio to the pot, stir, and turn off the heat.
- Meanwhile cook the pasta in plenty of salted water until just al dente.
- Scoop the cooked pasta right into the sauce, don't worry if a little cooking water comes along for the ride, it will help make the sauce. Toss well and add the walnuts and cheese. At this point you can add a little more pasta water if it seems too dry. Season with fresh cracked pepper if needed.
- Serve immediately in shallow bowls, topped with more cheese, if you like.
