Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to the package instructions until al dente.

While the pasta cooks, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced pancetta and cook until crisp and golden, about 6-8 minutes.

Drain the pasta, reserving 1/2 cup of the pasta cooking water.

Add the drained pasta to the skillet with the pancetta. Toss well to combine, adding a little reserved pasta water if the mixture seems dry.

Remove from heat, sprinkle with freshly grated Parmesan cheese, and season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Serve immediately, offering more Parmesan cheese at the table if desired.
