INGREDIENTS
1.5 oz chickpea pasta
0.5 oz pancetta
1 large large egg egg
2 large large egg whites egg whites
1.5 tbsp Pecorino Romano cheese
0.5 cup green peas
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.25 tsp sea salt
1 clove garlic
PREPARATION
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the chickpea pasta according to package directions until al dente.
While the pasta cooks, sauté the diced pancetta in a large skillet over medium heat until it becomes crispy and golden brown.
In a small bowl, whisk together the whole egg, egg whites, and grated Pecorino Romano cheese until well combined.
Add the minced garlic and green peas to the skillet with the pancetta, sautéing for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Reserve 0.25 cup of the starchy pasta water, then drain the pasta and add it directly to the skillet with the pancetta.
Remove the skillet from 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 freshly cracked black pepper and sea salt before serving immediately.
