Chicken Carbonara

An extremely popular dish would you believe. If you like creamy pasta sauce of course this is the way to go.

This Creamy Carbonara recipe is a plate of heavenly, creamy pasta. Silky spaghetti with crispy pancetta in a super creamy and cheesy sauce. So easy to make at home.

INGREDIENTS

• 8 ounces spaghetti uncooked
• 6 oz pancetta chopped
• 2 cups heavy cream
• 2 large egg yolks
• 1 1/2 cups Parmesan Cheese  freshly grated, plus more for garnish
• 1 tsp pepper freshly ground
• 4 tbsp basil chopped

INSTRUCTIONS

• Bring a large pot of salted water to boil over high heat. Add the pasta and cook according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
• Add the pancetta to a large pan and saute over medium-low heat until crisp, about 8 minutes. Transfer the pancetta to a bowl using a slotted spoon.
• Add the Cream to the pan and bring to a simmer. Whisk the egg yolks into the sauce. Whisk in the Parmesan cheese. Stir in the black pepper. Taste for salt and season if needed. I find no salt is needed since the cheese adds plenty of saltiness.
• Add the cooked spaghetti, bacon and basil to the skillet and toss well to combine. 
• Garnish with more Parmesan cheese if desired and serve immediately.
