Ingredients

  • 8 ounces spaghetti
  • 4 slices bacon, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • Chopped parsley, for garnish

Instructions

  • 1. Cook the spaghetti according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  • 2. In a large skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon from the skillet and set aside, leaving the bacon grease in the skillet.
  • 3. Add the minced garlic to the skillet with the bacon grease and cook for 1 minute, until fragrant.
  • 4. In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs and Parmesan cheese. Season with salt and black pepper.
  • 5. Add the cooked spaghetti to the skillet with the garlic and bacon grease. Toss to coat the spaghetti with the bacon grease.
  • 6. Remove the skillet from the heat and quickly pour in the egg and cheese mixture. Toss the spaghetti with the mixture until the eggs thicken and create a creamy sauce. The heat from the spaghetti will cook the eggs, but be careful not to scramble them.
  • 7. Add the cooked bacon back to the skillet and toss to combine.
  • 8. Serve the pasta carbonara hot, garnished with chopped parsley.
