Penne and Vodka Sauce Recipe

Recipesfull introduces to you: Popular Recipes. (Penne and Vodka Sauce Recipe). One of the best and easiest recipes I have tried. You can find pancetta at any good Italian deli, try not to substitute as it makes the dish. This is also very good with shrimp added in the last few minutes of simmering. If you like spice, add a dash or 2 of red pepper flakes.
