Creamy Carbonara with Crispy Pancetta
Chickpea pasta tossed in a silky egg and parmesan sauce with golden-brown chicken and salty pancetta, finished with a vibrant handful of fresh spinach.
INGREDIENTS
2 oz Chickpea rotini
3 oz Boneless skinless chicken breast
0.5 oz Diced pancetta
1 large Egg
1 tbsp Grated parmesan cheese
0.25 tsp Freshly cracked black pepper
0.25 tsp Sea salt
1 cup Fresh baby spinach
1 tsp Extra virgin olive oil
PREPARATION
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the chickpea rotini according to package directions until al dente.
While the pasta cooks, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat and sauté the pancetta until it begins to crisp.
Add the diced chicken breast to the skillet with the pancetta, seasoning with sea salt and black pepper, and cook until the chicken is golden-brown and cooked through.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and grated parmesan cheese until well combined.
Reserve 0.25 cup of pasta water, then drain the pasta and add it directly to the skillet with the chicken and pancetta.
Toss the fresh baby spinach into the skillet, stirring until it just begins to wilt from the residual heat.
Remove the skillet from the heat entirely and quickly stir in the egg and cheese mixture, adding a splash of reserved pasta water as needed to create a silky, creamy sauce.
