The Ultimate Bacon Arrabiata

Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large, deep frying pan over a medium-high heat. Add the red onion, bacon and birdseye chilli. (If you don’t like it too hot don’t add the seeds.) Cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the onion is soft. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute or until fragrant. Add the white wine, diced tomatoes, tomato and sugar. Bring to the boil. Immediately reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 10 minutes or until thickened slightly.

Add the drained pasta to the pan and stir through the rocket. Season well with salt and pepper.
