Spaghetti Carbonara is simply spaghetti in a cream sauce with bacon and chicken. Once you start eating it you simply cannot stop! We even made this for dinner two nights in a row!
We almost always bake them with our Butter Biscuits. (Recipe follows.) This is a definite must have!
Recipe
16 oz spaghetti
1 cup chopped bacon
1/2 cup chopped onion
2 to 3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp dried oregano
2 Tbsp all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup sour cream
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
1/4 cup chopped (fresh or dried) parsley leaves
salt and pepper
1 to 2 cooked, seasoned, chicken breasts
Directions
Cook spaghetti according to package directions. Meanwhile, cook bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat until golden brown. Add onion and garlic and sauté 3 minutes, until onion is soft. Add oregano and cook 1 minute. Add flour and stir to coat onion. Add milk and bring to a simmer. Cook 5 minutes, until sauce thickens, stirring frequently. Remove from heat and stir in sour cream, Parmesan, parsley, and chicken. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Drain pasta and toss with sauce to coat. Serve.
