Ingredients:

Serving

3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1/2 lb pancetta or 1/2 lb bacon, chopped
4 garlic cloves, chopped
1 small red chili peppers, seeded and finely chopped
1 pint brussels sprout , cores trimmed and thinly sliced about 1/8-inch thick
black pepper
1 few grates nutmeg
2 tbsp fresh thyme, chopped
1 tsp lemon zest
1/2 cup chicken stock
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tbsp butter
salt
1 lb spaghetti
1 cup grated pecorino romano cheese

Directions:

Bring a large pot of water to a boil for the pasta.
Heat a deep skillet over medium-high heat with olive oil, three turns of the pan. Add the bacon and render for 2-3 minutes. Add the garlic and chili pepper and stir for 1 minute. Add the shredded Brussels sprouts and season with black pepper. Toss to lightly brown; season with nutmeg, thyme and lemon zest. Once the Brussels wilt and lightly brown at the edges, add the stock, lemon juice and butter; reduce the heat to low.
Salt the boiling water for the pasta. Drop the pasta and cook to al dente; reserve 1/2 cup of the starchy cooking water. Drain the pasta and toss with the sprouts and a little starchy cooking water. Remove from the heat and toss with the cheese; serve immediately.
