I subbed smoked prosciutto and parmesan, and my boyfriend said it was one of his absolute favourite dishes I’ve ever made. Excellent presentation, too – looks straight out of a chef’s kitchen.

This is one of my go-to pasta meals now. It is so simple but incredibly delicious! I usually use a bit more pancetta and substitute parmesan for the pecorino. This dish is so flavorful! Thanks so much for sharing this.

I made this for dinner last night. I never ever thought I could cook a pasta dish worthy of a fine Italian restaurant, but I just did!! This dish was A-MAZE-ING!! My kids gobbled it up and asked for seconds!! Thank you so much for another great staple to our family meals!!

This was delicious and super easy to make! My grocery store was out of pancetta, so I used smoked ham. I also used penne pasta. I don’t know if I missed a lot by not using pancetta, but the recipe turned out awesome anyway. Very easy to put together. The recipe feeds four adults without ANY leftovers – next time I am going to double it and freeze some!

I had to make a few substitutions based on what was available in my pantry but the overall flavor was amazing.

Great recipe.

I just made this for dinner, and my husband exclaimed, “This is a keeper!” It is fantastic. After looking all over town for smoked pancetta, I settled on smoked bacon, and I completely understand what you are saying about the smokey taste! On its own the pecorina was a little strong and salty (for me), but on the pasta, it was fabulous! Thank you! Thank you! Five mits for sure.
