To start, rinse the rice in cold water and drain. In a medium-sized pot, bring the water to a boil and add the rice. Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let the rice simmer for about 18-20 minutes or until the water is absorbed and the rice is tender.
While the rice is cooking, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the diced pancetta and cook until crispy, stirring occasionally. Remove the pancetta from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the diced onion and minced garlic. Cook until the onion is translucent and the garlic is fragrant. Add the frozen peas and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
Once the rice is cooked, add it to the skillet with the onion, garlic, and peas. Stir in the cooked pancetta and season with salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot.
