Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 ounces spaghetti
  • 4 slices bacon, chopped
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Cook spaghetti according to package instructions; drain.
  2. In a skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove and set aside.
  3. Season chicken with salt and pepper, and cook in the same skillet until browned and cooked through. Remove chicken and slice.
  4. In a bowl, whisk together eggs and Parmesan cheese.
