Steps:
- Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add penne and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, 10 to 11 minutes. Drain.
- While the pasta is cooking, heat oil in a skillet over medium heat; stir in onion and garlic. Cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 4 minutes. Add pancetta and prosciutto; saute until crisp and brown, about 8 minutes. Add chicken and saute until heated through, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool slightly.
- Whisk cream, Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, egg yolks, basil, and parsley together in a large bowl until blended.
- Return chicken mixture to the stove over medium-low heat. Add drained penne and cream mixture; toss over medium-low heat until penne is thickly coated, about 4 minutes; do not let it boil or the eggs will scramble. Taste and season with salt and pepper if necessary. Transfer to a large, wide serving bowl and serve immediately.

CHICKEN PASTA CARBONARA
This is one of our all-time favorite weeknight meals. It is quick, simple to prepare, and makes the house smell wonderful while it is cooking. Be sure to have all the ingredients chopped and ready to go prior to cooking. We like our pasta spicy, but you can control the "heat" with the amount of red pepper flakes you use. Serve with hot, crusty bread dipped in great olive oil and balsamic vinegar.

Steps:
- Make the bread bowl according to the instructions on the Domino's Bread Bowl recipe. 1. Season the chicken pieces with salt and pepper and dredge them in flour. In a skillet on medium heat, heat 4 tablespoons of oil and add the floured chicken into the pan; brown for about 3 minutes per side. Lower the heat to medium-low heat and continue until the chicken is cooked through. Place chicken on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Place the bacon in the skillet and cook it until it is crispy. Remove about 4 tablespoons of bacon, reserving it for the topping. Add the mushrooms and yellow onion to the skillet and cook until the onion is translucent and the mushrooms are soft. Turn the heat to low and return the chicken to the skillet. Toss with the bacon, mushrooms, and onion. Cook for a minute or two and then shut off the heat. In a saucepan, make a roux by melting butter in the saucepan. Add flour to the butter and stir continuously until the mixture becomes golden brown. Add crushed garlic to the roux and stir for 1 minute. Gradually pour the cream into the saucepan and whisk continuously until the sauce begins to thicken. Add the Parmesan cheese, salt, and white pepper to the sauce; Stir until all ingredients are combined. How to Assemble Domino's Chicken Carbonara Bread Bowl Place the bread bowls on a baking sheet. In a large bowl, combine the pasta with sautéed chicken and bacon mixture. Toss with 2 cups of sauce. Spoon approximately 1 ½ cups of the chicken carbonara into each bread bowl. Ladle an additional ¼ cup sauce on top of each bread bowl and sprinkle with mozzarella cheese and reserved bacon bits. Place in the oven and cook for approximately 10 minutes, until the sauce is bubble and the cheese is melted. Remove from the oven and serve immediately.
Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh pasta, flavorful cheese, and crispy bacon will make all the difference in this dish.
- Cook the pasta al dente: This means cooking it until it is still slightly firm to the bite. Overcooked pasta will be mushy and won't hold the sauce well.
- Save some pasta water: The starchy pasta water will help to create a creamy sauce. Reserve about 1/2 cup of pasta water before draining the pasta.
- Don't overheat the eggs: The eggs in the sauce should be gently heated until they are just thickened. Overheating them will cause them to scramble.
- Add the cheese gradually: Stir in the cheese a little at a time, until it is melted and smooth. Adding the cheese too quickly can cause it to clump.
- Serve immediately: Carbonara is best served immediately, while the sauce is still hot and creamy.
Conclusion:
