Ingredients

1 jar marinara sauce

1 cup vodka

1/2 cup grated parmesan

1/2 cup heavy cream

1/2 lb. smokey slab bacon (I used black forest bacon)

1 lb. penne pasta

Directions

This is amazinly simple. Place bacon on a cookie sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes in a preheated 400 oven. Bacon should be cooked through and slightly crisped. Remove and let cool, then slice into 1/2" pieces.

Add marinara to a cooking pot. Use a stick blender to puree the sauce. Place over medium heat, add chopped bacon and vodka. Simmer for 20 minutes. Meanwhile, cook pasta according to package directions and then drain.

When sauce has simmered for 20 minutes, add paremesan and cream. Simmer for 3 additional minutes. Pour sauce over pasta and toss.

This may very well be my new favorite comfort food. It is a simple dish to prepare, but it has some nice layers of flavors that really stand out.

Wow! The smoky flavor of the bacon really comes through. I could not imagine what a cup of vodka and smoky bacon in marinara sauce could possibly be like combined, but because it sounded so different - I had to try it! Thank you for submitting a great recipe. It was an adventure I will take again. :D
