Cooking Steps
Before starting, add 6 cups warm water and 2 tsp salt to a medium pot. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat. Wash and dry all produce. Peel, then thinly slice shallot. Thinly slice chives. Heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat. When hot, add bacon to the dry pan. Cook, flipping occasionally, until crispy, 7-9 min.** Remove the pan from heat. Using a tongs, transfer bacon to a paper towel-lined plate. Carefully discard all but 1 tbsp bacon fat from the pan. When cool enough to touch, roughly chop bacon.
Add tortellini to the boiling water. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, 2-3 min. Reserve 3/4 cup pasta water. Drain and return tortellini to the same pot, off heat
Meanwhile, heat the pan with reserved bacon fat over medium-high. When hot, add shallots and peas. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 4-5 min. Sprinkle Cream Sauce Spice Blend over veggies. Cook, stirring often, until veggies are coated, 1-2 min. Season with salt and pepper. Add cream, reserved pasta water and half the chives. Cook, stirring occasionally, until sauce comes to a simmer. Remove from heat.
Add cream sauce, 2 tbsp butter and bacon to the pot with tortellini. Season with salt and pepper, then stir until combined. Divide tortellini between bowls. Sprinkle remaining chives over top.
