3 t. extra virgin olive oil
8 oz. pancetta or good bacon, diced

Scoop out 1/4 cup of the pasta cooking water and set aside. Drain the pasta. Add reserved pasta water to the pan with the pancetta, then toss in the pasta and heat, shaking the pan for 1 minute. Remove form heat, add 1 cup of the Parmigiano Reggiano, the egg whites and pepper to taste and toss until thoroughly mixed. Divide pasta among 4 warmed serving bowls. Make a nest in center of each serving and gently drop in an egg yolk. Season the egg yolks with more pepper and sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup Parmigiano Reggiano. Serve at once.

I've tried many carbonara recipes, but this one is by far the best. The use of guanciale instead of pancetta was a game-changer. Highly recommend!

This pasta was simply divine! The flavors were perfectly balanced and the guanciale added a delightful smokiness. I'll definitely be adding this to my regular dinner rotation.
