¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil

1 ½ ounces guanciale (cured pork cheek), sliced

¼ cup sliced red onion

Instructions

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the bucatini and cook until tender, about 11 minutes, stirring occasionally. Drain the pasta.

In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add the garlic cloves and cook until golden, about 1 minute. Remove and discard the garlic. Add the guanciale and cook until crispy and golden, about 4 minutes. Stir in the onion and red pepper flakes, and cook until the onion softens, about 3 minutes. Add the tomatoes, salt, and black pepper. Simmer for about 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

Add the cooked bucatini and Pecorino Romano cheese to the sauce, and toss until the pasta is well coated.
