Crispy Bacon Fettuccine
Ingredients
  • 1 pound dry fettuccini noodles
  • 8 slices bacon
  • 4 eggs
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 1/4 cups heavy cream
  • 1 pinch ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
1
Begin by filling a large container with salted water, then place it on the stovetop and bring to a rolling boil.
2
Add the fettuccini pasta to the boiling water, ensuring it's fully submerged, and cook for 8-10 minutes or until it reaches the desired level of doneness.
3
Remove the pasta from the water with a slotted spoon and drain excess moisture.
4
In a separate pan, cook the bacon over medium heat until it reaches a golden brown and crispy state.
5
Remove the cooked bacon from the pan with a slotted spoon and place it on a paper towel-lined surface to drain excess grease.
6
Using a knife, chop the cooked bacon into small pieces for added texture.
7
In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs, cheese, and cream until well combined.
8
Add the chopped bacon to the bowl mixture and stir until fully incorporated.
9
Pour the egg-bacon mixture over the cooked fettuccini pasta in the pan, then use a pair of tongs to gently toss and combine.
10
Reduce the heat to an extremely low setting and cook for 1-2 minutes, or until the mixture has thickened slightly.
11
Avoid overheating the mixture, as this can cause it to scramble and lose its desired texture.
12
Season the dish with black pepper to taste, then serve immediately.
