INGREDIENTS

1.5 oz whole wheat spaghetti

0.75 oz diced pancetta

1 large egg

0.75 cup egg whites

2 tbsp grated parmesan cheese

0.5 cup frozen peas

0.25 tsp black pepper

0.25 tsp sea salt

1 clove garlic

PREPARATION

• 1

  Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat spaghetti according to package directions until al dente.

• 2

  While the pasta cooks, whisk together the whole egg, egg whites, grated parmesan cheese, and black pepper in a small bowl until well combined.

• 3

  In a large skillet over medium heat, sauté the diced pancetta until it becomes golden and crispy.

• 4

  Add the minced garlic and frozen peas to the skillet with the pancetta, sautéing for 2 minutes until the garlic is fragrant and peas are bright green.

• 5

  Reserve 0.25 cup of the pasta cooking water, then drain the spaghetti.

• 6

  Add the hot spaghetti to the skillet with the pancetta and peas, tossing to coat. Remove the skillet from the heat entirely.

• 7

  Slowly pour the egg mixture over the pasta while whisking or tossing constantly; the residual heat will cook the eggs into a silky sauce without scrambling them.

• 8

  Add a splash of the reserved pasta water if needed to reach your desired creaminess and serve immediately.
