Ingredients
Two - 4 oz Center-cut Filet Mignon Steaks
1 Tbsp Vegetable Oil
1/4 Cup Mayonnaise
1 Cup Sour Cream
3 Chipotle Peppers in Adobo Sauce
1 Clove Garlic, peeled
1 Lime, zest & juiced
24 Sesame Crackers
Chives, thinly sliced for garnish
Kosher Salt
Freshly Cracked Pepper
1 Bottle (28 oz) Saratoga Sparkling Water
Directions
  1. Heat a pot and 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil over medium heat. Add the guanciale and cook until rendered and crispy—there is no need for vegetable oil—about 5 to 7 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the pancetta to a small bowl and set aside, leaving any rendered fat behind in the pot.
  2. Add the shallots, red pepper flakes, thyme, and a generous pinch of salt to the pan and cook over medium-low heat, stirring often, until the shallots are soft, translucent, and just beginning to gain color, about 5 to 7 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant.
  3. Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring constantly to prevent scorching. Add the canned tomatoes and place a lid on the pot. Take the pot and place in a 380f oven for 45 minutes. You will see the oil split from the tomatoes, and that is when you know that it is ready. With a whisk, crush the tomatoes into a sauce, add the crispy guanciale back into the skillet, and stir into the sauce until all the ingredients are incorporated; season the sauce to taste with salt and black pepper.
  4. Boil the Rigatoni until just shy of al dente. Using a large, slotted spoon, transfer the pasta directly into the skillet and toss with the sauce. Heat the pan over low heat and add a splash of pasta water as needed to help loosen the sauce. Mix until the sauce evenly coats the pasta.
  5. Serve with finely grated pecorino, red pepper flakes, and a splash of olive oil.
