Make the pasta following our pasta recipe linked in the notes below. Follow the steps down to step number 7.
Dice the bacon, and cook in a frying pan until the outside browns. Remove from the pan.
Dice the chicken and cook until it browns and is cooked all the way through. Remove from the pan.
In a small bowl, mix the egg yolk and 2 tbsp of the parmesan cheese together until it forms a paste.
Place your fryingpan back on medium heat, add 1/2 the total amount of cream and mix the parmesan and egg pasta into the cream. This will take some mixing.
Eventually, add the remaining cream, chicken and bacon. Continue stirring.
Put a pan of water on to boil, and add a splash of olive oil or butter.
Once the water is boiling, add your pasta. The pasta is ready once it floats. This happens very quickly!
Drain the pasta, and mix it in with your carbonara sauce.
Serve with some grated parmesan cheese on top!
