Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Sauté the Pancetta

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the cubed pancetta and cook until it starts to crisp, about 5-7 minutes.

  2. 2

    Cook the Onions and Garlic

    Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the skillet. Sauté until the onion is translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add the Peas

    Stir in the frozen peas and cook for another 2-3 minutes until heated through.

  4. 4

    Create the Sauce

    Pour in the light cream and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until melted and the sauce is creamy.

  5. 5

    Season the Sauce

    Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Remove from heat.
