1 large leek, white part only, rinsed and finely minced
1 large carrot, finely minced
1 garlic clove, finely chopped
1/2 pound mild Italian sausage
1/4 pound sliced pancetta, page 4, diced
1 cup full-bodied red wine

1 cup chicken broth
Salt to taste
2 tablespoons chopped parsley

Fill a very large saucepan two-thirds full with salted water. Bring water to a boil. Add the shells.
Bring water back to a boil and cook shells uncovered 7 to 10 minutes until al dente. Drain shells and place in a warm deep dish or bowl. Add sauce and toss gently.
