Creamy Tomato & Bacon Fettuccine

There’s nothing like a simple pasta dish for a quick weeknight meal. This smokey bacon fettuccine has the veggies built in so you don’t need to cook anything extra!
Ingredients
- 300 g Diamond fettuccine pasta
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 250 g Farmland streaky bacon chopped
- 2 cloves garlic crushed
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 tin chopped tomatoes in juice 400g
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup frozen peas
- 2 tbsp sour cream
- grated parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to the boil and cook the fettuccine according to the packet instructions.
- While the fettuccine is cooking, heat the oil in a large fry pan and cook the bacon until crispy. Add the garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes until the garlic is fragrant. Add the paprika and cook for a few more seconds, then add the tinned tomatoes, season to taste with salt and pepper, and bring to a simmer.
- Once the sauce is at a simmer, add the frozen peas and cook for 4 minutes or until tender. Stir in the sour cream and cooked fettuccine and serve with some fresh parmesan grated over the top.
Notes
TIP: If the sauce seems too thick add a little pasta water to bring to the desired consistency.
