Skillet Pasta with Bacon and Eggs (NYT)
Emulsifying creamy carbonara sauce can feel trickier than treading a tightrope, but this skillet pasta recipe fulfills those cravings with ease, and all in one pan. Start by searing some sliced bacon until crisp, toasting orzo in the rendered bacon fat, then simmering with stock until pasta is al dente. Next, you’ll stir in a few handfuls of Parmesan, then crack eggs right into the nearly cooked pasta. The whites will cook until creamy, but the yolks should remain runny, so that as you eat, the yolk mingles with the pasta for silky spoonfuls.


Ingredients
  • 4 slices bacon, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup orzo
  • Salt and pepper
  • 2¾ cups chicken stock or water, plus more as necessary
  • ⅔ cup grated Parmesan, plus more for serving
  • 4 large eggs
