THIS IS AWESOME! This is definitely going to be one of our new favorites.
1 pound fresh spaghetti
1 pound double-smoked bacon (small diced)
2 cups fresh corn
2 jalapenos (thinly sliced into rings)
1/2 cup parsley (roughly chopped)
Salt
Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add salt so that it tastes like the sea.
Heat a large sauté pan over medium-high heat and add the bacon. Render the bacon for about 3 minutes, until it begins to crisp. Drain.
Add the corn and jalapeno bacon and cook for another 2 minutes, until the vegetables soften.
Meanwhile, add the spaghetti to the boiling water and cook until al dente, about 4 minutes. Remove the pasta from the pot and add directly into the bacon and vegetable mixture. Add a couple ladles of the pasta water, stirring to make a sauce.
Remove pan from the heat and add the chopped parsley. Serve immediately.
Notes: I would use fewer jalapenos. I also forgot to add the ladles of pasta water, but I don't think it was missed. Cliff said to top with cheese. I disagree.
