  • 42.00 gm lemon juice
  • 56.88 gm extra virgin olive oil

Instructions:
  • In a large frying pan, bring water to a boil over high heat. Add beans and cook for 2-3 minutes until tender. Drain and refresh in cold water, then set aside to drain.
  • Pat dry the frying pan using a paper towel. Spray with oil and heat over medium-high heat. Cook pancetta for 2 minutes on each side until golden. Place on paper towel to drain, then let cool. Break into large pieces before using.
