Default Chicken Carbonara

I found this recipe on the GMA website, it called for breaded chicken breasts but I thought it would be just as good with grilled chicken breasts. It's delicious

Chicken Carbonara
Brown or grill chicken breasts until juices run clear

Carbonara Sauce
1/4 cup bacon, small dice
1/4 cup pancetta, small dice
1 tablespoon diced onion
1 teaspoon garlic, minced
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup frozen peas
2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese, grated
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 turns fresh cracked black pepper
2 tablespoons country ham, small dice
1 tablespoon chopped parsley

Directions
1. In a sauté pan over a medium high heat, render the bacon and pancetta till crispy, remove from the pan and discard all but 1 tablespoon of the fat. Add the onion to the pan and sweat for 2-3 minutes.
2. Add the garlic and sweat for 30 seconds. Immediately add the cream, peas, cheese, salt and pepper. Allow the sauce to boil and reduce by fifty percent before returning the bacon and pancetta to the sauce, and garnishing with the country ham and parsley.
3. Pour 4 tablespoons of the sauce over each chicken breast to serve.

After I made it, I thought of substituting broccoli for the peas too. I will try that the next time I make it. By the way, I'm glad you liked it.
