Set a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 400°F
To a shallow baking dish, add whole garlic cloves, diced pancetta, Colavita extra-virgin olive oil, thyme, red pepper flakes, salt and black pepper. Bake for 25 Minutes, uncovered. Stir halfway through to ensure even browning.
Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook Colavita pasta until al dente.
Reserve pasta water and then drain pasta and set aside.
Once the garlic confit is cooked, remove from the oven. Discard sprigs of thyme, then roughly smash the garlic cloves with a fork.
Add the cooked pasta, lemon zest, lemon juice, at least 1/2 cup pasta water, chopped basil, chopped chives, grated cheese and stir well until combined. Taste and season with additional salt, black pepper and red pepper flakes if needed.
Serve with burrata cheese, extra herbs, lemon zest and enjoy!
