Instructions

Prep
1

Before starting, wash and dry all produce. Add 10 cups water and 2 tsp salt to a large pot (use same for 4 ppl). Cover and bring to a boil over high heat. Meanwhile, thinly slice mushrooms. Roughly chop parsley. Finely chop chili, removing seeds for less heat. (TIP: We suggest using gloves when prepping chilis!)

Cook bacon
2

Cut bacon crosswise into 1/4-inch strips. Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add bacon. Cook, stirring occasionally, until crispy, 5-7 min.** Remove the pan from heat. Using a slotted spoon, transfer bacon to a small bowl. Set aside. Reserve bacon fat in the pan.

Cook bison
3

Heat the pan with reserved bacon fat over medium-high. When hot, add bison. Cook, breaking up bison into smaller pieces, until no pink remains, 4-5 min.** Season with salt and pepper.

Cook sauce
4

Add mushrooms, onions, garlic puree and half the chilis to the pan. Cook, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms soften, 5-6 min. Add tomato sauce base, broth concentrate and crushed tomatoes. Cook, stirring occasionally, until sauce thickens slightly, 3-4 min. Season with salt and pepper.

Cook linguine
5

Meanwhile, add linguine to the boiling water. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until tender, 2-3 min. Reserve 1/2 cup pasta water (dbl for 4 ppl), then drain and return linguine to the same pot, off heat. Add 2 tbsp butter (dbl for 4 ppl), then toss to coat.

Finish and serve
6

Add bison and sauce, reserved pasta water, bacon and half the Parmesan to the pot with linguine. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to combine. Divide bison and bacon arrabbiata between plates. Sprinkle parsley and remaining Parmesan over top. Sprinkle with remaining chilis, if desired.
