INGREDIENTS

4 oz chicken breast

0.5 oz pancetta

1.5 oz whole wheat spaghetti

1 large egg

1 tbsp 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 the egg, grated parmesan cheese, and black pepper in a small bowl until the mixture is smooth and set aside.

• 3

  In a large skillet over medium heat, sauté the diced pancetta until the fat renders and the bits become golden and crispy.

• 4

  Add the diced chicken breast and minced garlic to the skillet, cooking until the chicken is browned and cooked through.

• 5

  Stir in the frozen peas during the last 2 minutes of the chicken cooking to warm them through.

• 6

  Reserve 0.25 cup of the starchy pasta water, then drain the pasta and add it directly to the skillet with the chicken and pancetta.

• 7

  Remove the skillet from the heat immediately; pour in the egg mixture and reserved pasta water, tossing everything vigorously to create a creamy, silky sauce without scrambling the eggs.

• 8

  Season with sea salt and serve immediately while the sauce is warm and glossy.
