Ingredients

  • kosher salt
  • 1 lb. cheese tortellini
  • 1/2 lb. bacon, cut into 1/2" strips
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine, such as Sauvignon Blanc
  • 5 oz. baby spinach
  • 1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan, plus more for serving
  • 8 oz. burrata cheese, at room temperature

Directions

    1. Step 1Bring a large pot of water to a boil and generously season with salt. Cook pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain and return to pot.
    2. Step 2Meanwhile, heat a large sauté pan over medium heat and add bacon in an even layer. Fry until crisp, about 5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer bacon onto a paper towel-lined plate.
    3. Step 3Return sauté pan with remaining bacon fat to medium heat; add garlic and red pepper flakes and cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Add white wine, then bring to a boil and simmer for 3 minutes. Turn off heat and toss together with tortellini, spinach, parsley and Parmesan. Add burrata to the pan and spoon sauce over to warm the cheese.
    4. Step 4Break up burrata using 2 forks and let it melt into the pasta. Serve tortellini immediately.
