A delightful pasta dish combining crispy bacon, fresh vegetables, and a rich tomato sauce.
Cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crispy, then remove and set aside.
Cook the bacon slowly to render out the fat and achieve a crispy texture.
In the same skillet, sauté the chopped onion and minced garlic in the bacon fat until fragrant.
Stir frequently to prevent the garlic from burning.
Add the diced bell pepper to the skillet and cook until softened.
Cut the bell pepper into even pieces for uniform cooking.
Stir in the diced tomatoes and let the mixture simmer for a few minutes.
Simmering allows the flavors to meld together beautifully.
Meanwhile, cook the pasta in a pot of boiling salted water until al dente, then drain.
Reserve a cup of pasta water to adjust the sauce consistency if needed.
Combine the cooked pasta with the sauce in the skillet, then crumble the bacon on top before serving.
Toss the pasta well to coat it evenly with the sauce.
