🧂 Ingredients

4 oz store-bought cubed pancetta

I used Boar's Head Uncured Pancetta
4 links sweet, mild or hot Italian sausage

casing removed and cut into small pieces
1/2 yellow onion

chopped
1 tsp garlic

minced
1 cup chicken broth

more if needed
3/4 cup heavy cream
1/2 lb pasta of your choice

I used Campanelle
basil

chopped for garnishing
grated parmesan

for topping

Instructions

1 Begin by sautéing the cubed pancetta over medium high heat until it becomes
golden brown. Set it aside. Keep its juices.
2 In the same pan, add the prepared sweet Italian sausage. Allow it to brown,
rendering flavorful juices.
3 Once browned, add the onions and garlic. Cook for about 2 minutes.
4 Introduce chicken broth, heavy cream and the pasta.
5 Make sure to stir and submerge pasta as much as you can. You may add a bit more
chicken broth if needed.
6 Cover, cook on low for 15 minutes. Check and stir a few times to make sure it
all cooks evenly. If again, you need to add more chicken broth, do so.
7 Once the pasta is perfectly cooked and the sauce is thickened to your liking,
reintroduce the cooked pancetta over the pan.
8 Serve the Pancetta Sausage Pasta with a sprinkle of fresh basil and grated
Parmesan cheese on top for a burst of freshness and a hint of nutty, salty
goodness.
