How to make Easy Pancetta and Zucchini Pasta
First, heat the olive oil in a big pan on medium-high heat. Add the chopped garlic and cook for one minute.
Next, dice the zucchini and onion on a cutting board and put them in the pan. Cook for 5 minutes.
Add the orzo pasta and 800 ml of hot water with vegetable stock. Let it simmer for 10-15 minutes with the lid on, stirring sometimes.
While that’s cooking, put the pancetta in another pan and cook it until it turns brown and crispy. Stir it often so it cooks evenly. Set it aside for later.
After the pasta is done, season it with salt and pepper. Then, add basil and mix it all together.
Put the pasta into bowls and drizzle some olive oil on top. Add grated parmesan and a few chilli flakes if you like it spicy. Finally, add the pancetta on top.
Serve it while it’s hot, and enjoy this tasty dish that’s perfect for using up summer zucchini. The salty pancetta makes it even more delicious!
