Ingredients
- 12 oz dry Spaghetti
- 1 lb Chicken breast
- 4 Eggs
- 1 cup Parmesan
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 2 tsp Black pepper
- 1 tbsp Olive oil
- 1/4 cup Parsley
Steps
- Sear the sliced chicken in the olive oil 6 minutes until golden; set aside.
- Whisk the eggs, parmesan, and a blizzard of black pepper into a thick paste.
- Boil the spaghetti until just shy of al dente, reserving a full cup of pasta water.
- Off the heat, toss the pasta with the egg mixture, splashing in hot pasta water until it turns to silk — the residual heat cooks the eggs gently, never scrambles them.
- Fold the chicken back through.
- Serve immediately in warm bowls with more parmesan and pepper.
