Personally I prefer this dish prepared with pancetta but you will also like it with bacon. If possible, get the pancetta sliced by your grocer because the prepackaged one is often too salty. Browning the garlic delicately flavors the butter and oil.
Servings: 2
Suggested accompaniements : Lettuce Salad and tomatoe.
