Need recipe: Chicken Carbonara - pretyblkgrl - 12-08-2008 Hi everyone! I've been a subscriber for C@H for a year now and absolutely love it! I got gift subscriptions for some foodies at work because I think it's so awesome. When I signed up a year ago, they sent me the Weeknight Menus Vol. 1 book. Sadly, I can't find that book anywhere at home, and when I called C@H to order a new one, they said they discontinued it! I'm desparate to find the recipe in vol. 1 for Chicken Carbonara. If anyone would be so kind as to post it here I'd be VERY grateful. Thank so much!

Chicken Carbonara with Crumb Topping 4 servings Whisk together: 1/2 cup Parmesan, grated 2 eggs 1/4 cup heavy cream 1/2 tsp. kosher salt 1/2 tsp. black pepper Sauté: 1/2 lb. thick-sliced bacon, diced Add & sauté: 1 lb. chicken tenders, seasoned with salt & pepper Deglaze & Reduce: 1/4 cup dry white wine 1/4 cup chicken broth 1 T. fresh lemon juice Cook; Drain with: 12 oz. dry spaghetti 1 cup frozen peas Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil for the spaghetti. Prepare bread crumb topping. Whisk together Parmesan, eggs, cream, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Sauté bacon in a large sauté pan until crisp. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate; pour off all but 1 T. drippings. Add chicken; sauté 4 minutes per side; transfer to the plate with the bacon. Deglaze the pan with wine, broth, and juice, scraping up any bits on the bottom. Reduce by half, 2-3 min. Cook spaghetti in boiling water, stirring often. Drain pasta into a colander with the frozen peas. Shake pasta to remove excess water. Combine the bacon and chicken mixture with the egg mixture. Add hot pasta and toss to coat. Garnish with bread crumb mixture. Serve immediately. Bread Crumb Topping Makes 2 cups Pulse: 2 slices crusty Italian bread, 1/2” thick, cubed (to make 2 cups crumbs) Toast crumbs in: 2 T. olive oil Toss with: 3 T. chopped fresh parsley 1 T. lemon zest, minced 1 tsp. red pepper flakes Salt to taste Pulse bread cubes in a food processor until coarse. Toast crumbs in oil over medium heat in a nonstick skillet for about ___ minutes or until crisp. Transfer to a small bowl. (the book omitted the number of minutes, but I’m guessing 2-3 minutes.) Toss with parsley, zest, pepper flakes and salt. Re: Need recipe: Chicken Carbonara - pretyblkgrl - 12-08-2008 Bless you cjs! Thank you SO much! I promise to visit frequently!
