Follow The Directions

01

Step
12 mins

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti in boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Drain and set aside.

02

Step
8 mins

Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium heat. Add pancetta and garlic; cook until browned and crisp, about 8 minutes. Remove from heat; cool slightly.

03

Step
0 mins

Whisk heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, egg yolks, basil, and parsley together in a large bowl until well blended.

04

Step
4 mins

Stir chicken into pancetta mixture until well combined. Toss in spaghetti and cream mixture over medium-low heat until chicken is heated through and sauce thickly coats spaghetti, about 4 minutes. Do not boil, or eggs will scramble. Season with salt and black pepper. Transfer to a serving bowl.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a splash of dry white wine to the pancetta and garlic while cooking.
Ensure the heat is low when combining the pasta and cream sauce to prevent the eggs from scrambling.
Freshly grated Parmesan cheese is highly recommended for the best flavor and texture.
Garnish with additional fresh basil and parsley for a vibrant presentation.

  • Brooks King

    Be careful not to overcook the pancetta, it can get too hard.

  • Rachelle Schuster

    I added a little white wine to the sauce and it gave it an extra depth of flavor.

  • Ignatius Jerde

    Next time I'll try it with a different type of pasta, like fettuccine.
