SPAGHETTI WITH PANCETTA, ESCAROLE, AND GARLIC CHIPS
Steps:
- Fill a large pot with water, bring to a boil, and salt the water. Add the pasta and cook to al dente, with a bite to it.
- While the pasta is working, heat a large skillet over medium heat with the EVOO (three times around the pan). Add the pancetta and cook until crisp, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the pancetta from the skillet with a slotted spoon to a plate lined with a paper towel and reserve. Turn the heat on the pan back to low, then add the sliced garlic and cook until golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove the garlic chips from the pan to drain alongside the crispy pancetta. Turn the heat up to medium again, add the red pepper flakes, and cook for 30 seconds. Add the escarole, tossing it into the flavored oil to wilt in stages. Once all the escarole has fit into the pan, add the chicken stock, lemon juice, salt and pepper and cook for 2 minutes.
- Drain the hot pasta well and add it to the escarole. Add the lemon zest and toss to distribute. Turn the heat off and add the butter and Parmigiano cheese, toss to melt. Toss in the crispy pancetta and garlic chips. Serve the spaghetti with more cheese to pass at the table.
GARLIC SPAGHETTI
When Gramma passed away, my mom was given the job to make this garlic spaghetti for every family get together. It's so easy and cheap to make I decided I'd give it a try and it's awesome. The bowl will be empty before you know it!! If you love garlic and pasta like I do, you'll love this. It's a very light flavored pasta.

Steps:
- Combine the spices. While your noodles are cooking start warming a little of the olive oil and the garlic on low heat until the garlic has cooked (don't over cook or burn the garlic) and the flavors are released. Add a little butter and a little of the spices and let simmer on low for about a minute while stirring. Keep repeating the steps until everything has been added. The slower you add and the longer you let simmer the better the flavor.
- Once the noodles are done drain and toss together. We keep it in a crock pot to keep it warm or to take to work for pot luck days!
- I'm sure you can add any other spices you like or add more garlic. Serving size depends on if you are using this as a side dish as we do.
