Peas and Pancetta
- 1/4 pound pancetta, diced (1 cup)
- 1 shallot, sliced
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- Grated zest and juice of 1 orange
- 3 cups shelled fresh peas (about 1 pound)
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- Kosher salt
- Cook the pancetta in a large skillet over medium-low heat until crispy, about 5 minutes.
- Add the shallot and garlic, cook 1 minute and then add the orange juice.
- Increase the heat to medium, add the peas and cook until tender, about 3 minutes.
- Remove the pan from the heat and fold in the orange zest, parsley and butter.
- Taste for seasoning and add salt if necessary, though you shouldn't need much, if any, because the pancetta adds a natural saltiness to the dish.
