3759. CREAMY FARFALLE with PEAS and BACON

serving: 4


12 ounces dried farfalle (bow-tie pasta)
6 ounces lean bacon, chopped
1 large garlic clove, pressed
1¼ cup heavy cream
1 cup green peas, thawed if frozen
cup grated parmesan cheese
¼ cup fresh parsley, chopped

Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Add farfalle and cook according to package instructions until done. In a large skillet, over high heat, saute bacon until browned (3-4 minutes). Remove from heat and use a paper towel to soak up most of the fat. Place skillet with bacon back over high heat. Add garlic and saute about 1 minute. Add heavy cream to skillet and simmer for about 5 minutes. Add the peas to the skillet and return to a simmer. Cook about 3 more minutes. Add parmesan cheese into sauce. When pasta is ready, drain it and put it back into the pot. Pour sauce over pasta and stir in the chopped parsley.
