Super Easy Pasta Carbonara image

The wine really sets this recipe off! It's super simple and a go to favorite of mine that I could eat everyday! Sometimes if I don't have pancetta I'll just use bacon and occasionally if I have leftover priscutto I'll throw some of that in there as well. This is the easiest, tastiest carbonara recipe I have ever made!

Time 25m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 lb pasta (I like cavatappi)
1 -2 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 lb pancetta, diced
1/2 lb thick cut bacon, chopped
5 garlic cloves, slightly bruised and skins removed
1 cup dry white wine
1 1/2 cups pecorino cheese
2 eggs
lots fresh ground black pepper
fresh parsley, to finish off

Steps:

  • Bring salted water to a boil and add pasta.
  • Cook pancetta, bacon, and garlic with olive oil in a pan. You'll want the garlic to turn a nice golden (not burnt!) color.
  • While this cooks in a seperate bowl (make sure it's large enough to mix with all ingredients at the end) mix the cheese, 2 eggs, and pepper. Set this aside until pasta is done.
  • When pancetta and bacon is crisp and garlic is golden add in the cup of white wine and scrap the little bits off the bottom of your pan. Cook for a few minutes to let the flavors come together.
  • Drain pasta and let cool slightly, maybe 1 minutes.
  • Add to bowl with cheese and egg mixture and stir, stir, stir! I stir until most of the cheese seems melted, then add in the bacon mixture and stir some more. Top it off with fresh parsley and enjoy!
