Stir in the pasta and slightly undercook according to the package directions. Drain but don't rinse.Meanwhile, place a large sauté pan over high heat & when hot, add the bacon and sauté until browned but not too crispy. Remove bacon from the pan and drain on paper towels, then pour off the fat and return the pan to medium-high heat.
