Ingredients
-
8 ounces fettuccini, or other pasta
-
4 slices bacon
-
1 onion, thinly sliced vertically
-
4 ounces sliced mushrooms
-
2 teaspoons minced garlic
-
1 (8 ounce) Brie cheese, rind removed
-
1/3 cup julienned sun-dried tomatoes
-
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
-
chopped fresh parsley or fresh basil
Directions
-
Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add fettuccini and cook, stirring occasionally, until al dente, about 12 to 13 minutes, or your preferred doneness. Drain, reserving 1/2 cup pasta water; set aside.
-
Meanwhile, place bacon in a large skillet over medium heat and cook on both sides until brown and crisp, about 5 minutes. Remove bacon to drain on paper towels, leaving fat in skillet. Break into bite-sized pieces when cool enough to handle.
-
Add onion and mushrooms to skillet with bacon fat, stirring occasionally, and saute until lightly caramelized, about 5 minutes. Add garlic, and saute for about 30 seconds to a minute.
-
Cut Brie into small cubes and add to the skillet, stirring to melt and combine. Add enough pasta water to form a smooth sauce, and stir in sun dried tomatoes.
-
Add cooked fettuccini to skillet, toss to combine, and season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with cooked bacon, garnish with parsley or basil, and serve immediately.
