This recipe is so simple and the flavors are so amazing! It was THE HIT at a recent dinner. Everyone had to have the recipe. Better double the recipe! They will all want seconds! Ingredients:
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil |
1/2 lb thick sliced bacon or 1/2 lb pancetta |
3 shallots |
1/8 teaspoon red pepper flakes |
1 lb frozen peas, thawed |
Directions:
1. Heat oil in large skillet over medium heat.
2. Cut bacon or *Pancetta into small dice and cook in the oil until golden brown and fat has rendered.Remove the bacon to paper towels to drain.
3. Cut the peeled shallots in half and slice very thin.Cook them in the rendered drippings until soft, along with the pepper flakes.
4. Add the thawed peas and heat through. Distributing the shallots well.
5. Add in the bacon or *Pancetta and toss. Serve.
6. * The original recipe called for Pancetta which now runs between $20.00 and 22.00 per lb. So I used a good quality thick sliced smoked bacon with great results! :-).
