Steps:
- For the carbonara base sauce: Put the pancetta in a cold saute pan and then put it over medium-high heat. When the fat starts to melt, stir the pancetta once in a while so it doesn't burn in the pan. Allow the pancetta to cook in the rendered fat until crispy and brown, about 30 minutes. Remove the pancetta pieces to a plate lined with paper towels, saving the fat in the pan.
- Whisk the flour into the pancetta fat to make a roux and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring so it does not burn. Whisk the milk into the the roux. (Transfer to a large pot if your saute pan is not big enough to hold the sauce.) Allow the sauce to gently simmer for 15 minutes, stirring regularly. Whisk in the Parmesan and season with some salt and pepper. Simmer to melt the cheese, another 2 to 3 minutes. Hold warm for serving.
- To finish the dish: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the pasta according to the package directions.
- Meanwhile, season the shrimp with some salt and pepper. Heat a large saute pan over high heat until it begins to smoke. Add the oil and then, working in batches if necessary, cook the shrimp to get a golden brown sear, 2 to 3 minutes per side. You do not want to overcrowd the pan. Add more oil between batches if necessary. Squeeze the juice of 1 of the lemons over the shrimp, add the butter to the pan and remove from the heat to let the shrimp rest.
- Bring the carbonara base sauce back up to a simmer. Add the pasta to the sauce and then add the peas and cooked pancetta. Adjust the consistency of the sauce with water if needed.
- Add the shrimp to the pan with the pasta, toss and then season with some salt and pepper to taste. Add a squeeze of lemon juice from the remaining lemon.
- To plate, divide the pasta and sauce among 6 bowls and arrange the pasta. Garnish with the parsley.
THE BEST CARBONARA
Now this is our idea of comfort food. Creamy and rich, it's the quintessential dish for a chilly evening. We like to splurge every once in a while and add a knob of butter to the cheesy egg sauce just to round it out. We've left that option up to you, however. Either way, we can't think of a more classic or satisfying pasta dish.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat.
- Whisk together the eggs, yolks, Parmesan, Pecorino, pepper and butter if using in a large bowl until well combined.
- Add the pasta and cook as the label directs. Reserve 1 cup cooking water, then drain the pasta.
- Meanwhile, cook the pancetta in a large skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until crisp, about 8 minutes. Add the spaghetti and half the reserved pasta cooking water to the skillet and toss to combine.
- Add the egg mixture and toss to coat. Cook, tossing continuously to avoid scrambling the eggs, until the sauce is creamy, thinning it with the remaining pasta water if it becomes too thick (it should be saucy but not watery), about 1 minute.
- Divide the pasta among plates and sprinkle with more grated Parmesan.
CHICKEN AND SHRIMP CARBONARA
My wife and I went to that popular Italian-American restaurant chain for dinner recently, and I had their shrimp and chicken carbonara. It was absolutely delicious and I thought, 'What the heck, I'll try making this at home.' I found a few recipes online, but none grabbed me. After studying several recipes, I came up with this recipe on my own. It's fairly simple to make, and my wife said it was better than the original.
