  • 4cupsshredded, cooked rotisserie chicken
  • 2 ½cupsheavy whipping cream, at room temperature

  • ¼cupchopped fresh basil
  • ¼cupchopped Italian (flat-leaf) parsley

  • Directions

    Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add penne and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, 10 to 11 minutes. Drain.

    While the pasta is cooking, heat oil in a skillet over medium heat; stir in onion and garlic. Cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 4 minutes. Add pancetta and prosciutto; saute until crisp and brown, about 8 minutes. Add chicken and saute until heated through, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool slightly.

    Whisk cream, Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, egg yolks, basil, and parsley together in a large bowl until blended.

    Return chicken mixture to the stove over medium-low heat. Add drained penne and cream mixture; toss over medium-low heat until penne is thickly coated, about 4 minutes; do not let it boil or the eggs will scramble. Taste and season with salt and pepper if necessary. Transfer to a large, wide serving bowl and serve immediately.
