Creamy Carbonara with Crispy Pancetta
Al dente chickpea pasta tossed in a silky Greek yogurt and egg sauce, topped with salty, crispy pancetta and vibrant sweet peas.
INGREDIENTS
1.5 oz chickpea pasta
0.75 oz pancetta
1 large egg
0.5 cup egg whites
1 tbsp parmesan cheese
0.5 cup sweet peas
0.25 cup nonfat Greek yogurt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.25 tsp sea salt
1 clove garlic
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the chickpea pasta according to package directions until al dente.
While pasta cooks, place the diced pancetta in a cold skillet over medium heat and cook until crispy and golden brown.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg, egg whites, Greek yogurt, and grated parmesan until the mixture is smooth and combined.
Remove the pancetta from the skillet, leaving a small amount of fat, and sauté the minced garlic and sweet peas for 2 minutes.
Reserve 0.25 cup of pasta water, then drain the pasta and add it to the skillet with the peas and garlic.
Turn off the heat and quickly stir in the egg mixture and reserved pasta water, tossing constantly to create a creamy sauce without scrambling the eggs.
Season with sea salt and black pepper, then top with the crispy pancetta before serving immediately.
