Preparation

Step 1

Cook and stir pancetta/bacon and garlic in 10 inch skillet over medium heat until pancetta/bacon is light brown, about 4 minutes. Discard garlic and all but 2 tablespoons of the drippings.

Add wine to skillet, cook over medium heat until wine is almost completely evaporated, about 3 minutes. Stir in cream and cook and stir for 2 minutes. Remove from heat.

Cook fettuccine in large saucepan of boiling salted water just until al dente, 6 to 8 minutes. Drain well and return to dry saucepan.

Whisk egg and egg yolk in a small bowl; whisk in 1/3 cup of the cheese and the pepper. Pour bacon-cream mixture over the fettuccine in the saucepan and toss to coat. Heat over medium-low heat just until hot. Stir in egg-cheese mixture. Toss to coat evenly. Immediately remove from heat. Serve with remaining cheese.
