Penne boscaiola is an easy comfort food that can be made in minutes. Combining earthy mushrooms, salty pancetta or bacon, aromatic garlic, and creamy sauce creates a hearty, filling dish with a cosy, home-cooked feel.
Ingredients
Method
Cook pasta in a large pan of rapidly boiling salted water until al dente. Drain well, then toss in a little of the oil to keep it moist.
Heat a large pan on medium. Add bacon and cook for 5 minutes or until browned and beginning to crisp. Add mushrooms and cook for 2 more minutes. Fold in onion, garlic, and thyme, stirring well, and cook for 5 minutes or until onion has softened.
Increase heat to high, add wine and cook until liquid is reduced by half. Stir in cream and season with salt and pepper. Mix in pasta, cook for a few minutes to thicken, then fold in rocket, parsley and cheese. Serve with lemon wedges.
