Yield
Serves: 4 servings
Preparation

In a large sauté pan over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy, about 6 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels. Pour off all of the oil in the skillet except for 3 tablespoons. Add the garlic; season with black pepper. Sauté for 30 seconds then add the crispy bacon back to the skillet along with the pasta. Sauté for 1 minute.

Season the eggs with salt. Remove pan from the heat and add the eggs, whisking quickly until the eggs thicken—but do not scramble. Add the cheese and re-season with salt and pepper.


Mound into serving bowls and garnish with parsley.
