Directions Pasta Carbonara with Crispy Kale
Directions
-
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook penne in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, for 4 minutes less than package instructed cooking time, about 5 minutes. Drain, reserving 1/2 cup of pasta water. Set aside.
Heat oil in a large, high-sided skillet over medium heat. Saute onion in the hot oil, 4 to 5 minutes. Add turkey bacon and saute until browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove bacon and set aside. Add Swiss chard and kale to the same pan and saute until tender, 3 to 4 minutes.
Crumble bacon, return to the skillet, and reduce heat to low.
Whisk ricotta cheese, soy milk, eggs, egg yolks, and salt together in a bowl. Whisk reserved pasta water slowly into egg mixture to temper eggs. Remove the skillet from heat and toss in cooked pasta as you pour over the egg mixture, heat from pasta will gently cook eggs and create a sauce. Serve immediately.
