Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Begin by chopping the pancetta into small pieces and slicing the mushrooms. Mince the garlic and chop the parsley. Measure out the pine nuts and parmesan cheese.

  2. 2

    Cook the Pasta

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

  3. 3

    Cook the Pancetta

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped pancetta and cook until crispy, about 4-5 minutes.

  4. 4

    Add Mushrooms and Garlic

    Add the sliced mushrooms and minced garlic to the skillet. Sauté until the mushrooms are tender and golden, about 5-7 minutes.

  5. 5

    Combine Pasta and Sauce

    Add the drained pappardelle to the skillet with the pancetta and mushrooms. Toss to combine, adding reserved pasta water little by little until desired sauce consistency is reached.

  6. 6

    Finishing Touches

    Stir in pine nuts, chopped parsley, and season with salt and black pepper to taste. Serve hot, topped with grated Parmesan cheese.
