SPAGHETTI WITH PANCETTA, ESCAROLE, AND GARLIC CHIPS

Steps:

• Fill a large pot with water, bring to a boil, and salt the water. Add the pasta and cook to al dente, with a bite to it.
• While the pasta is working, heat a large skillet over medium heat with the EVOO (three times around the pan). Add the pancetta and cook until crisp, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the pancetta from the skillet with a slotted spoon to a plate lined with a paper towel and reserve. Turn the heat on the pan back to low, then add the sliced garlic and cook until golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove the garlic chips from the pan to drain alongside the crispy pancetta. Turn the heat up to medium again, add the red pepper flakes, and cook for 30 seconds. Add the escarole, tossing it into the flavored oil to wilt in stages. Once all the escarole has fit into the pan, add the chicken stock, lemon juice, salt and pepper and cook for 2 minutes.
• Drain the hot pasta well and add it to the escarole. Add the lemon zest and toss to distribute. Turn the heat off and add the butter and Parmigiano cheese, toss to melt. Toss in the crispy pancetta and garlic chips. Serve the spaghetti with more cheese to pass at the table.

GARLIC SPAGHETTI

Steps:

• Combine the spices. While your noodles are cooking start warming a little of the olive oil and the garlic on low heat until the garlic has cooked (don't over cook or burn the garlic) and the flavors are released. Add a little butter and a little of the spices and let simmer on low for about a minute while stirring. Keep repeating the steps until everything has been added. The slower you add and the longer you let simmer the better the flavor.
• Once the noodles are done drain and toss together. We keep it in a crock pot to keep it warm or to take to work for pot luck days!
• I'm sure you can add any other spices you like or add more garlic. Serving size depends on if you are using this as a side dish as we do.

SPAGHETTI WITH GARLIC

Steps:

• Peel garlic without crushing cloves and thinly slice lengthwise as evenly as possible (you should have about 1 cup; peel and slice more if necessary). Cook garlic in 4 tablespoons (1/4 cup) oil in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over moderately low heat, stirring occasionally, until just golden, 7 to 10 minutes. Transfer garlic with a slotted spoon to a bowl. (Garlic will crisp as it cools.) Add hot pepper flakes to skillet and cook, stirring, 1 minute, then remove skillet from heat.
• Meanwhile, cook spaghetti in a 6- to 8-quart pot of boiling until al dente. Reserve 1 cup cooking water, then drain spaghetti in a colander. Stir zest and salt into oil in skillet, then add spaghetti, parsley, and 1/2 cup reserved cooking water. Toss over moderately high heat until combined well, 30 seconds to 1 minute, adding enough reserved cooking water to keep spaghetti moist. Add half of garlic and toss. Remove from heat and toss pasta with remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons oil and salt and pepper to taste. Transfer to a serving bowl and sprinkle with remaining garlic.
