Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 pound asparagus, tough ends trimmed
4 tablespoons EVOO, plus more for drizzling
Kosher salt
2 tablespoons butter
Finely grated zest of 2 lemons
1 cup breadcrumbs
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh chives
1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1/3 pound pancetta, finely diced
Freshly ground pepper
4 cloves garlic, finely chopped or grated
1/2 cup dry white wine
3 organic, free-range egg yolks*
1 pound egg tagliatelle
1 cup grated pecorino cheese

Steps:

  • Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Lightly drizzle the asparagus with EVOO, then grill until charred, evenly marked and tender, 7 to 10 minutes. Cut into 1-inch pieces on an angle, or thinly slice if the asparagus is thick.
  • Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil for the pasta.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon EVOO in a small skillet over medium heat. Melt the butter into the oil; when it foams, stir in the lemon zest, then add the breadcrumbs and stir until moistened. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the breadcrumbs are deep golden. Stir in the chives and parsley and remove from the heat.
  • Heat the remaining 3 tablespoons EVOO in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the pancetta and 2 teaspoons pepper, and cook, stirring, for 3 minutes. Add the garlic and stir for 1 to 2 more minutes, then add the wine and reduce the heat to low.
  • Lightly beat the egg yolks in a small bowl.
  • Add the pasta to the boiling water and cook until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of the cooking water just before draining the pasta, and beat it into the egg yolks to temper them.
  • Add the asparagus to the pancetta mixture and heat through.
  • Drain the pasta and add it to the skillet with the asparagus and pancetta. Pour the egg mixture over the top, turn off the heat and toss for 1 minute, adding the cheese in the last few seconds. Divide the pasta among shallow bowls and top with lots of the lemon-herb breadcrumbs.

I'm not a huge fan of asparagus, but I really enjoyed this dish. The lemon-herb breadcrumbs were a great way to add flavor and crunch. I would definitely make this again, even without the asparagus.

This dish was a bit too rich for my taste, but it was still good. The asparagus was grilled perfectly and the lemon-herb breadcrumbs added a nice flavor. I would recommend using less butter and cream next time.
