Cooking Steps
Step 1: To begin making the Bacon Spaghetti Aglio Olio Pasta Recipe, boil the spaghetti pasta first
Step 2: Heat a sauce pan with enough water and allow it to come to a brisk boil
Step 3: Once the water starts to boil, add your spaghetti pasta, and 1/4 teaspoon salt
Step 4: Boil the pasta until it is al dente; that is just cooked
Step 5: When the pasta is cooked, strain the water and run it under cold tap water - this will stop the cooking process and the spaghetti pasta will remain firm
Step 6: Drizzle some olive oil over the spaghetti pasta and toss well
Step 7: Keep the pasta aside
Step 8: Heat a sauce pan and add the chopped bacon strips and cook until the bacon has become crisp
Step 9: Once done take them out, leaving the excess fat in the pan
Step 10: You can discard the fat or use the same fat instead of olive oil to make your Aglio Olio pasta
Step 11: Drizzle about 2 tablespoon of olive oil into the same pan, add garlic and sauté until it is lightly brown
Step 12: Add in red chilli flakes, dried herbs and stir for a few seconds
Step 13: Stir in the cooked pasta and toss well
Step 14: Once the spaghetti pasta is well combined with the herbs, stir in the crispy bacon strips and toss well
Step 15: Sprinkle salt and check if the seasonings are perfect
Step 16: Adjust the salt and seasoning according to your taste
Step 17: Once done, turn off the heat
Step 18: Transfer the Bacon Spaghetti Aglio Olio Pasta onto a serving plate and grate some parmesan cheese on top top
Step 19: Garnish with chopped parsley and serve
Step 20: Serve the Bacon Spaghetti Aglio Olio Pasta Recipe along with Herbed Dinner Rolls Recipe and Cream of Celery Soup for a delicious Italian Dinner at home with friends and family
