PREPARATION

  • 1

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

  • 2

    While the pasta is boiling, dice the chicken breast into small, uniform cubes and season lightly with sea salt.

  • 3

    Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat, then add the pancetta and chicken.

  • 4

    Sauté the meat for 5-7 minutes until the pancetta is crisp and the chicken is fully cooked and golden brown.

  • 5

    In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the whole egg, egg yolk, Pecorino Romano, and black pepper until the mixture is smooth and pale yellow.

  • 6

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

  • 7

    Turn off the heat under the skillet and add the hot pasta directly to the chicken and pancetta, tossing to coat in the rendered fat.

  • 8

    Slowly pour the egg and cheese mixture over the pasta while stirring rapidly and constantly to create a creamy emulsion.

  • 9

    Add the reserved pasta water one tablespoon at a time as needed to reach a silky, glossy consistency without scrambling the eggs.
