Cream Sherry Carbonara

Silky eggs, savory Parmesan, smoky bacon, delicate prosciutto, and fragrant onion come together to create an incredibly rich, comforting pasta that's packed with bold Italian-inspired flavor in every bite.

Servings: 4
Time: 45 Minutes

Ingredients 
  • 4 slices bacon, cut into 1 inch slices
  • 3 ounces prosciutto, chopped
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1/4 cup cream sherry
  • 1/2 cup butter, cut into 1 inch pieces
  • 1 pound spaghetti or other pasta
  • 4 eggs, beaten
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
  • 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions: 
  • In a large skillet, saute bacon pieces until almost crisp.  
  • Add prosciutto and brown slightly. 
  • Remove bacon and prosciutto to a paper-towel lined plate (keeping the grease in the pan).  
  • Add the onions to the bacon grease in the skillet and saute until tender. 
  • Return bacon and prosciutto to the skillet and add the sherry.  Cook for 2 minutes. 
  • Remove from heat and add the butter pieces. Set aside and keep warm.
  • Cook pasta according to package directions.
