Easy Carbonara with Pancetta

This one is creamy and unbelievably delicious while still being incredibly easy. The richness of the egg yoke along with the crispy pancetta makes this pasta a huge freaking hit with anyone! The pancetta just takes it to another level over Bacon Carbonara. Trust me when I say that you should make extra because you’ll want leftovers.

Ingredients

  • 1/4 lbs diced pancetta (you want chunks, not thin slices)
  • 2 eggs beaten
  • 1 tbs butter
  • 1 garlic clove finely diced
  • 1/2 a small white onion finely diced
  • 1/4 cup fresh grated Parmesan
  • salt & pepper to taste
  • about 350 grams linguine noodles (fresh ones if you can)

Directions

In a large skillet melt butter and cook pancetta and onions until crispy and add garlic for the last 3 minutes. Cook pasta, drain, and add pasta to skillet with the pancetta. Pour in beaten eggs and almost all of the Parmesan (retain a little for garnish) Mix well, season with salt & pepper, and garnish with remaining cheese.

Now EAT!
