Chicken Carbonara

This was a little scary to make with the raw egg and all but it came out so good. Joshua ate two bowls and we both loved it.

Ingredients:

1lb Rigatoni or whatever pasta you like

2 baked or grilled pieces of chicken chopped or shredded

1 med yellow onion

2 cloves garlic

1 egg

Salt and pepper to taste

Shredded cheese to top

Directions:

1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook pasta until al dente.
2. While pasta is cooking heat large skillet on med heat. Chop onion and garlic and sauté in pan until tender. Season with salt and pepper. Add chicken to mixture.
3. Drain pasta and reserve about a cup of the pasta water. Add pasta directly to sauté pan. Toss together with meat and onion mixture. Stir in pasta water so that a small amount of moisture clings to pasta.
4. Remove from heat and crack egg directly into the pan. Using tongs toss so that the egg is evenly distributed. Serve in bowl and top with shredded cheese.

ENJOY!
