Enjoy a comforting, savory dish featuring al dente whole wheat spaghetti tossed with a rich, creamy egg yolk sauce and crispy turkey bacon. This recipe balances hearty flavors with a luxurious texture, making it perfect for a wholesome meal any time of day.
INGREDIENTS
1.5 oz Whole Wheat Spaghetti (dry)
3 slices Turkey Bacon
3 Egg Yolks
2 tbsp Fresh Parsley (optional)
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and add the whole wheat spaghetti. Cook until al dente according to package instructions, then reserve about 1/4 cup of pasta water and drain the rest.
While the pasta is cooking, heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the turkey bacon slices and cook until they are crispy, turning once. Once done, set them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess fat.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, a pinch of salt, pepper, and a couple of tablespoons of the reserved hot pasta water to create a smooth, creamy sauce.
Return the drained spaghetti to the pot or a large bowl. Quickly pour in the egg yolk mixture, tossing vigorously to coat the pasta evenly. The heat from the spaghetti will gently thicken the sauce without scrambling the yolks.
Chop the crispy turkey bacon into bite-sized pieces and fold them into the spaghetti along with freshly chopped parsley, if using.
Taste and adjust seasonings with salt and pepper if necessary. Serve immediately while warm.
