Pasta Night 2

 
Orecchiette Pasta with Broccoli & Pancetta
Recipe HERE
 

This recipe was good, although while putting it all together it looked bland.  It turned out to be far from bland because pancetta from Central Market has a lot of pepper in it and yummy saltiness.  It just seemed like it needed a "sauce".  After putting it all together we transferred it to a bowl and used 1/2 cup of Chicken stock to deglaze the skillet and about 2 Tbs. of 1/2 & 1/2 with salt and pepper.  Whisked on medium high heat and adding 1/2 cup Parmigiana creates a very light sauce.  Voila!  Another Pasta Night tackled.  Summer Sun Pasta is still the victor, until next week...when we will see if Summer Sun stays on top or not.

Looks good! I have no motivation to be creative in the kitchen, grilled meat and veggies is what's for dinner at our place!
