Penne With Pancetta, Sage, And Mushrooms
- 1 1/2 cups low sodium beef broth
- 1 cup dry red wine
- 3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
- 12 ounces fresh mushrooms, assorted types (oyster, crimini, shiitake)
- kosher salt
- black pepper, freshly ground to taste
- 8 ounces pancetta, thinly sliced then coarsely chopped
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into 1/2 inch cubes
- 3 tablespoons fresh sage, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 lb penne rigate
- 1 cup parmesan cheese, finely grated, divided
- Bring the broth and wine to a boil in a medium heavy saucepan over medium-high heat and cook until reduced to 1 cup, 15 to 18 minutes.

Stir over medium-high heat, adding water by tablespoonfuls if dry, until pasta is aldente and the sauce thickens and clings to the pasta, about 5 minutes.Taste, and if necessary, add salt and pepper to taste. Transfer to a large bowl and sprinkle 1/2 cup of cheese over the top.
