Pancetta and Arugula Pasta

(From "50 great pasta sauces" by Pamela Sheldon Johns)
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil, plus 1 tablespoon for tossing pasta
4 ounces pancetta, diced
1 onion, diced
1 pound fresh or dried pasta
3 cups arugula
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

1. In medium saute pan, heat 1/4 cup olive oil over medium high heat. Saute the pancetta and onion until golden brown. 5 to 6 minutes. Set aside and keep warm.
2. Meanwhile, in a large pot of salted boiling water, cook the pasta until al dente. Drain and toss with the olive oil.
3. Add the arugula to the pancetta and cook over medium heat, stirring, just to wilt slightly. Season with salt and pepper. Turn the pasta into a warmed serving bowl, toss with the arugula mixture, and serve at once.
Serves 4.
