Ingredients

Directions

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook pasta according to package instruction. Drain.
  • Meanwhile, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add pancetta and cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes, until garlic becomes fragrant and pancetta is crispy. Transfer pancetta to a paper-towel-lined plate to drain.
  • Melt butter in the same skillet over medium heat until it begins to bubble. Add the flour and whisk to form a paste (roux). Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly. While whisking, add in the milk in a slow, steady stream. Continue to cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce begins to thicken, about 3 minutes.
  • Reduce heat to low and continue to cook, stirring until the sauce is thick enough to coat the back of a wooden spoon, about 3 minutes.
  • Add 2 ounces of goat cheese, lemon zest, lemon juice and Parmigiano-Reggiano to the sauce. Stir until well combined. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Add the hot pasta, the remaining goat cheese, peas and pancetta to the pan and toss together to combine. Serve topped with microgreens.
