Instructions

In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, egg yolk, heavy cream, parmigiana reggiano, and pepper. Set aside.

In a large, deep skillet over medium heat, cook bacon until crispy. (I drained a majority of the drippings and returned to pan). Add garlic to bacon and cook 1-2 minutes stirring frequently. Add peas and stir again.

Add in al dente pasta and egg mix. Reduce heat to low. Use tongs to mix the pasta and sauce. Add in reserved pasta water and stir constantly. You will see the sauce change from thin to a creamy texture.

Plate and top with more parmigiana reggiano. Enjoy!
