INGREDIENTS

2 oz Whole wheat spaghetti

1 oz Pancetta

1 large Egg

0.75 cup Egg whites

2 tbsp Parmesan cheese

0.25 tsp Black pepper

0.25 tsp Sea salt

1 tsp Olive oil

1 tbsp Fresh parsley

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, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat and add the diced pancetta, sautéing until golden and crispy.

• 3

  In a small bowl, whisk together the whole egg, egg whites, grated parmesan cheese, and black pepper until well combined.

• 4

  Reserve about half a cup of the starchy pasta water, then drain the spaghetti and add it directly to the skillet with the pancetta.

• 5

  Remove the skillet from the heat entirely to prevent the eggs from scrambling, then quickly pour in the egg mixture while tossing the pasta constantly.

• 6

  Gradually add a splash of the reserved pasta water as needed to create a smooth, creamy sauce that coats every strand.

• 7

  Season with sea salt if needed and garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving immediately.
