Linguine Carbonara with Pancetta

A classic Italian dish, Linguine Carbonara with Pancetta is a creamy, indulgent pasta dish that's simple to make but incredibly delicious.

Ingredients - Serves 4

Cook the linguine according to the package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of the pasta water, then drain the pasta.
While the pasta is cooking, cook the pancetta in a large skillet over medium heat until crispy. Add the garlic and cook for another minute.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, Parmesan cheese, black pepper, and salt.
Slowly whisk in a bit of the hot pasta water to temper the egg mixture.
Add the drained pasta to the skillet with the pancetta and garlic. Toss to combine.
Remove the skillet from the heat and pour in the egg mixture, stirring quickly until the eggs thicken and create a creamy sauce.
If the sauce is too thick, add a bit more pasta water. Adjust the seasoning if necessary.
Serve the pasta with a sprinkle of chopped parsley on top.
