Atkins Pork Recipes

Ingredients:

3/4 lb bacon, chopped
8 oz atkins spaghetti pasta cuts
1/4 cup shallots, chopped
4 cloves garlic, chopped
1/2 cup white wine
8 oz mascarpone
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1/4 cup whole milk
1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions:

In Italy pasta is traditionally served as a small dish before the entrée.
Because this recipe is so rich, we prefer to serve it as a main course.


1. In a large skillet over medium-low heat, cook bacon until crisp, about
12 minutes. With a slotted spoon, transfer bacon to paper towels to drain;
remove all but 1 tbs fat from the skillet. Crumble bacon.

2. While bacon is cookiing, prepare pasta according to package directions,
drain and keep warm.

3. Add shallots to skillet; cook 3 minutes, until translucent. Add garlic
and cook 1 minute more. Stir in wine and cook until reduced by half, about
3 minutes.

4. Add mascarpone, salt and pepper. Stir until cheese is melted, about 2
minutes. Mix in milk and parsley; cook 1 minute to heat through. Add pasta
and bacon to skillet; mix gently. Divide on six plates and serve
immediately.
