Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 bacon slices, chopped
4 teaspoons olive oil, divided
4 medium onions, thinly sliced
1/2 teaspoon dried crushed red pepper
12 ounces spaghetti or linguine
4 large eggs
1 6-ounce bag fresh baby spinach
1/3 cup grated pecorino Romano cheese

Steps:

  • Sauté bacon in large skillet over medium heat until crisp. Transfer to paper towels. Pour off all but 1 tablespoon drippings; add 3 teaspoons oil and maintain heat. Add onions; sauté until deep golden brown, about 20 minutes. Stir in crushed red pepper. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat; cover to keep warm.
  • Meanwhile, cook pasta in pot of boiling salted water until tender but still firm to bite. Drain, reserving 1/2 cup pasta cooking liquid in bowl. Return pasta to pot; add onions. Cover to keep warm.
  • Heat remaining oil in large skillet over medium heat. Crack eggs into skillet; fry until whites are set but yolks are still soft, about 4 minutes. Add spinach, cheese, eggs, and bacon to pasta; toss until egg whites are torn into shreds and spinach wilts. Add pasta cooking liquid to moisten. Season with salt and pepper; serve.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover pasta. I just boiled some spaghetti and added it to the sauce.

I'm not a fan of runny yolks, so I cooked the eggs until they were well done. The dish was still very good.

This dish is a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll use less bacon next time.

I'm not sure why this recipe is called 'pasta with fried eggs', because it's really more like 'pasta with bacon and onions'. There's nothing wrong with that, but it's not what I was expecting.

I'm not a huge fan of caramelized onions, so I just sautéed them for a few minutes until they were softened. The dish was still very flavorful.

This recipe is a great base for customization. I added some chopped spinach and mushrooms, and it was amazing. I can't wait to try other variations.

I accidentally overcooked the eggs, but the dish was still delicious. The bacon and caramelized onions were perfect.

This dish is a bit heavy for me, but it's still very tasty. I might try using a lighter pasta next time, like angel hair or linguine.

I was skeptical about the combination of pasta, eggs, and bacon, but I was pleasantly surprised. The flavors and textures worked together perfectly. I will definitely be making this dish again.

I love the simplicity of this dish. The few ingredients really shine through, and the flavors meld together beautifully. I especially love the crispy bacon and the runny yolks from the eggs.

I'm not usually a fan of pasta with eggs, but this recipe changed my mind. The eggs were cooked to perfection and added a rich, creamy texture to the dish. I'll definitely be making this again.

This pasta dish is a flavor explosion! The combination of crispy bacon, caramelized onions, and perfectly fried eggs is heavenly. I added a sprinkle of red pepper flakes for a bit of heat, and it was divine.
