Ingredients

8 ounces pancetta, diced
1 medium shallot, thinly sliced
kosher salt
freshly ground black pepper
4 ½ cups chicken broth
1 pound whole wheat spaghetti
water as needed
4 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese, plus more for serving

Equipment
large pot

Instructions
Place the pancetta in a large pot over medium-high heat and cook, stirring, until the fat is rendered, 5-6 minutes. Stir in the shallot and cook until softened, about 1 minute. Season with as much salt and black pepper as desired, then transfer the pancetta mixture to a bowl and set aside.


Add the chicken broth and spaghetti to the pot from the pancetta over high heat and bring to a boil. Cook, stirring frequently, until the pasta is al dente, 7-9 minutes. Add water if the pasta becomes too dry. Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, Parmesan cheese, and as much black pepper as desired. Once the spaghetti is al dente, remove the pot from the heat and immediately add the egg sauce, stirring continuously until the sauce is no longer raw but not curdled. Add the cooked pancetta mixture and stir to combine. Serve with more Parmesan and black pepper on top as desired.
