1
Cook the Fettucine
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the fettucine and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water, then drain the pasta.
2
Prepare the Pancetta
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the diced pancetta and cook until crispy, about 5-7 minutes.
3
Combine Pasta and Sauce
Add the drained fettucine to the skillet with the pancetta and butter. Toss to combine, adding reserved pasta water a little at a time until desired sauce consistency is achieved.
4
Add Cheese and Breadcrumbs
Stir in the grated pecorino cheese and toasted breadcrumbs. Mix well until the cheese is melted and everything is evenly coated.
5
Season and Serve
Season with black pepper and salt to taste. Serve immediately, garnished with additional pecorino cheese if desired.
