Cacio e Pepe Potatoes with Bacon & Kale
recipe by Sidney Fry MS, RD | photography by Big Dreamz Creative
Move over smashed potatoes! There’s a new cheesy potato in town. Inspired by the punchy, peppery magic of Cacio e Pepe—the Italian pasta classic with sharp Pecorino Romano and cracked black pepper —this version reimagines the dish with golden, crisp- edged potatoes. It’s bold and grounding, with crispy pancetta for savory smokiness and crunchy kale for a healthy dose of color and earthiness. Every bite delivers the cheesy- creamy dish you know, but with a heartier, crisp-tender base that just wraps your belly in a warm blanket.
INGREDIENTS
- 2 (1.5-pound) bags mini potato medley
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 4 ounces diced pancetta or bacon
- 2 cups chopped kale
- 3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 4 ounces grated Pecorino Romano cheese, divided
- 2-4 tablespoons water
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
DIRECTIONS
Place potatoes in a heavy saucepan; cover with water. Add 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt. Bring to a boil over high heat; simmer 10 minutes or until potatoes are tender. Drain. Set aside to cool.
Preheat broiler to high. Cut potatoes in half lengthwise. Place on a large foil-covered baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon oil; toss to coat. Broil 3-5 minutes or until potatoes are crisp.
While potatoes boil, cook pancetta in a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat until crisp, about 6-8 minutes. Remove pancetta with a slotted spoon to a paper towel lined bowl. Add kale to drippings. Cook 3-5 minutes or until kale is wilted and slightly crisp. Remove kale from pan; add kale to pancetta.
Add remaining 2 tablespoons oil and 1 tablespoon butter to pan. Swirl to coat. Add 2 ounces of cheese and pepper, stirring to create a sauce. Add water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until sauce is creamy but not thin. Combine potatoes, kale and pancetta in a large bowl. Add sauce; toss to coat. Sprinkle with remaining 2 ounces of cheese.

Way cool, some valid points! I appreciate you making this article available, the rest of the site is also high quality. Have a fun.
I was just looking for this information for some time. After six hours of continuous Googleing, finally I got it in your web site. I wonder what’s the lack of Google strategy that don’t rank this kind of informative web sites in top of the list. Usually the top websites are full of garbage.

The water-by-the-tablespoon step would be useful to see in a short loop: the stirring motion and the point at which to stop are harder to judge from a finished-dish photo. Would you consider pairing a close-up of the real sauce with an illustrated cook demonstrating the action? Our SpriteFuse can generate a 2D character’s action frames from text. I would use the real pan footage as the reference for the sauce’s texture and let the original character demonstrate the motion beside it.
