Fettuccine Carbonara with Fried Eggs: A Gluten-Free Delight!

Indulge in a delightful twist on the classic Carbonara with this gluten-free recipe that serves four. Perfect for a hearty lunch, dinner, or even as a main course, this dish combines the rich flavors of Parmesan and Pecorino Romano cheeses with the savory taste of pancetta and the earthy notes of broccoli rabe. In just 45 minutes, you can enjoy a satisfying and flavorful meal that boasts a caloric breakdown of 29.38% protein, 65.5% fat, and 5.12% carbs.

To create this scrumptious dish, start by whisking eggs, cheeses, minced garlic, and freshly ground black pepper in a bowl, setting the mixture aside. Cook thinly sliced pancetta in a large non-stick skillet until it becomes crisp, then remove it with a slotted spoon and reserve the skillet with the drippings.

Next, cook the egg fettuccine in a pot of boiling salted water until it's almost tender, then add the broccoli rabe to the pot. Continue cooking until the pasta and broccoli rabe reach the desired crisp-tender texture. Drain the mixture, reserving ½ cup of the cooking liquid, and return the pasta-broccoli rabe mixture to the pot.

Combine the egg-cheese mixture, pancetta, and some of the reserved cooking liquid, tossing to create a creamy sauce. Adjust the consistency with more cooking liquid if needed, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Keep the pasta warm by covering it.

In the same skillet, fry the remaining eggs to your liking, seasoning them with salt and pepper. Finally, top the creamy fettuccine Carbonara with the perfectly fried eggs, and serve immediately for a truly memorable dining experience.

Experience the perfect harmony of flavors and textures in this Fettuccine Carbonara with Fried Eggs, a gluten-free recipe that promises to impress your family and friends.
