- Place the medium sauce pot on high heat with 4 cups of water and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Bring to a boil, then add the fresh pasta. Stir, then boil for 3-4 minutes. Reserve 1/4 cup of cooking liquid, drain well, and hold in the strainer until Step 4.
- While the pasta is cooking, wash and dry the Italian parsley and rough chop (trimming the thick stems as needed). Then, cut the bacon into 1/4-inch diced pieces. Place the large sauté pan on medium heat with 2-3 teaspoons of oil. Add the chopped bacon to the pan and cook for 4-6 minutes until it begins to brown and crisp.
- Carefully add the citrus-diced chicken to the pan. Sauté the chicken for 3-4 minutes until it begins to brown then add the peas. Cook for 1-2 minutes more.
- Stir in the cream sauce and the reserved pasta water. Bring to a low boil, then add the cooked pasta. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until the pasta is hot and coated with the sauce. Remove from the burner and turn off all heating elements.
- Divide the pasta carbonara between 2 bowls. Sprinkle with the Parmesan Romano cheese and Italian parsley. Buona mangiata!
