Ingredients:

Serving

10 slices bacon, chopped
3/4 cup pine nuts
3/4 cup finely chopped shallot
6 garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp hot red pepper flakes
2 tbsp olive oil
3 lbs collard greens, stems and center ribs discarded and leaves chopped
1/4 tsp salt
2 cups water
1 lb dried linguine
1 lb cherry tomatoes, quartered
1 cup parmigiano-reggiano cheese , shavings made with a vegetable peeler

Directions:

Cook bacon in a 5-quart heavy pot over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until crisp, about 5 minutes, then transfer with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain. Pour off all but 3 tablespoons bacon fat from pot.
Add pine nuts to pot and cook over moderate heat, stirring, until golden, about 2 minutes. Transfer nuts with slotted spoon to paper towels to drain and season with salt.
Add shallots to pot and cook over moderate heat, stirring, until softened, about 4 minutes.
Add garlic and red pepper flakes and cook, stirring, 1 minute.
Add oil and half of collard greens and cook, stirring, until slightly wilted, about 1 minute.
Add remaining greens and salt and continue to cook, stirring, until greens are crisp-tender, about 2 minutes more.
Add water and cover pot, then simmer greens, stirring occasionally, until just tender, about 15 minutes.
While collard greens are simmering, cook linguine in a 6- to 8-quart pot of boiling salted water until al dente.
Drain linguine in a colander. Add drained linguine and tomatoes to pot with greens and cook over moderately high heat, stirring constantly, 1 minute.
Season pasta with salt and pepper and serve topped with bacon, pine nuts, and cheese shavings.
