Sauce Ingredients

Method

Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Cook the Bacon

    In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon or pancetta until crispy. Remove from heat and set aside, leaving the fat in the pan.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Egg Mixture

    In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, grated Parmesan, and Pecorino Romano cheese until well combined. Add black pepper and mix well.

  3. 3

    Sauté the Garlic

    In the same skillet with bacon fat, add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

  4. 4

    Combine Ingredients

    Add the cooked bacon back into the skillet with garlic. Remove from heat and quickly pour in the egg and cheese mixture, tossing everything together to create a creamy sauce. The residual heat will cook the eggs.

  5. 5

    Season and Serve

    Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and additional black pepper if desired. Serve immediately over your choice of pasta.
