Total Time25 minutes
Course: Main Course
Servings: 5 servings

Ingredients

  • 3 heads radicchio cored and shredded
  • 125 gr bacon
  • 500 gr fusilli
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • Salt
  • Freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil for the Fusilli.
  • Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large, heavy skillet. Add the bacon and saute over medium heat until it just begins to brown. Add the radicchio and stir-fry for a few minutes, until it begins to wilt. Add a few tablespoons water and continue to cook the radicchio and bacon together until the radicchio is tender.
  • When the water for the pasta is boiling, add the fusilli and cook it about 8 minutes, until it is al dente. Drain it well, then transfer it to the skillet with the radicchio and bacon and toss them together. Add the butter.
  • Serve at once with grated cheese on the side.
