Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 4 lices Bacon (about 4 oz.), diced
- 1 ½ cups yellow onion (about ½ of a large onion / 8 oz.), finely diced
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- ½ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
- 28 oz. fresh Roma tomatoes (about 8 tomatoes) diced
- 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 16 oz. penne pasta cooked
Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan or braiser pan over medium heat.
- Add the bacon, onion and garlic. Cook until the bacon just begins to turn pink and the onion is golden, about 8-9 minutes.
- Add the crushed red pepper flakes. Cook until the bacon starts to brown, about 10-12 minutes. The onion and garlic will deepen in color from golden to dark brown. This is OK!
- Add the tomatoes, their juices and the sugar. Season with the salt and pepper, and bring to a boil.
- Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook until the sauce has thickened, about 10-15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, cook the pasta in salted water until it's al dente. Follow the package directions. Drain and return the pasta to the pot.
- Once the sauce has thickened, add the pasta to the sauce. Cook, stirring consistently, for 1 minute, until all the pasta has been coated.
- Spoon the pasta and sauce into bowls. Garnish with freshly ground parmesan cheese and fresh basil leaves. Enjoy immediately.
Notes
- This recipe was adapted from Grace Parisi's recipe in The Athlete's Palate Cookbook.
