Ingredients
- 8 oz. pancetta or bacon, chopped

- In a large skillet or Dutch oven, brown the pancetta or bacon over medium-high heat. Add
- in the onion and sauté until softened (about 8 minutes). Add in the garlic and cook until
- fragrant (about 1 minute). Pour in the vodka and stir to scrape the browned bits off the
- bottom of the pan.
- Turn the heat to medium-low and add in the crushed tomatoes, salt, and pepper. Cover and
- simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove the lid and simmer another 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, cook the pasta in a pot of heavily salted water until al dente (about 8 minutes).
- Drain and rinse with cold water.
- Slowly pour the cream into the tomato sauce, stirring to combine. Simmer another 5
- minutes. Add the cooked pasta to the tomato sauce, stir, and cook another minute. Gently
- stir in the basil. Serve with Parmesan cheese.
