Preparation

Cooking Instructions

1. Cook the Spaghetti

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the spaghetti and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water, then drain the spaghetti.

2. Prepare the Sauce

In a large skillet over medium heat, add the guanciale or country bacon. Cook until crispy, about 5-7 minutes.

3. Add Aromatics

Add the chopped onion and cook until translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Then add minced garlic and chili flakes, cooking for an additional minute.

4. Incorporate Tomatoes

Add the peeled tomatoes to the skillet, breaking them up with a spoon. Simmer for about 10 minutes until the sauce thickens.

5. Combine Pasta and Sauce

Add the drained spaghetti to the skillet with the sauce. Toss to combine, adding reserved pasta water as needed to achieve desired consistency.

6. Finish with Cheese and Lemon

Remove from heat and stir in the lemon zest and grated Pecorino Romano cheese. Adjust seasoning with salt if necessary.

7. Serve

Serve immediately, garnished with additional Pecorino Romano cheese and chili flakes if desired.
