Camembert Pasta

Rich and creamy baked Camembert pasta with crispy pancetta, garnished with fresh parsley. Perfect for a comforting weeknight dinner or a special treat.

  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

  • Spaghetti – 12 oz
  • Camembert Cheese Wheels – 3 small (about 125g each)
  • chicken- 6 oz, diced
  • Heavy Cream – 1/2 cup
  • Garlic Cloves – 2, minced
  • Fresh Parsley – 2 tablespoons, chopped
  • Olive Oil – 1 tablespoon
  • Salt and Black Pepper – to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F and lightly grease a baking dish with olive oil.
  2. Boil spaghetti in salted water until just shy of al dente. Drain and set aside.
  3. In a pan, heat olive oil and cook chicken until crispy. Add garlic and sauté for one minute.
  4. In the baking dish, toss cooked pasta with pancetta and garlic mixture and heavy cream. Season with salt and pepper.
  5. Nestle Camembert wheels evenly on top of the pasta and score the top of each wheel.
  6. Bake for 15-20 minutes until cheese is melted and bubbly.
  7. Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Score the Camembert tops to ensure even melting.
  • Use pasta slightly under al dente as it finishes cooking in the oven.
  • Leftovers keep well in the fridge for up to 3 days and can be reheated.
  • Add extra cream for a looser, saucier pasta.
