INGREDIENTS

  • Pasta

    • 🍝 1 (16 ounce) package spaghetti

  • Fats & Oils

    • 2 teaspoons olive oil

  • Meat

    • 1 (4 ounce) package pancetta bacon, diced
    • 4 cups shredded cooked chicken

  • Aromatics

    • 🧄 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • Dairy

    • 🥛 2 ½ cups whipping cream
    • 🧀 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

  • Eggs

    • 🥚 8 large egg yolks

  • Herbs & Seasonings

    • ¼ cup chopped fresh basil
    • ¼ cup chopped fresh flat-leaf Italian parsley
    • 🧂 Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

STEPS

1

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti in boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Drain and set aside.

2

Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium heat. Add pancetta and garlic; cook until browned and crisp, about 8 minutes. Remove from heat; cool slightly.

3

Whisk heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, egg yolks, basil, and parsley together in a large bowl until well blended.

4

Stir chicken into pancetta mixture until well combined. Toss in spaghetti and cream mixture over medium-low heat until chicken is heated through and sauce thickly coats spaghetti, about 4 minutes. Do not boil, or eggs will scramble. Season with salt and black pepper. Transfer to a serving bowl.
