Bring a large pot of water to a boil; cook pasta according to package directions and drain well. Lay flat on a sheet tray, drizzle with 1 tablespoon oil and set aside to cool.

Place the anchovy, egg yolk, garlic, mustard, and white wine vinegar into a food processer with half the oil and blitz until combined.

Step 3

While the food processer is still running, slowly add the water and the remaining oil.

Step 4

Add grated Parmesan and blitz until combined and a smooth dressing is formed.

Step 5

Toss the pasta with half the dressing, until fully coated.

Step 6

Heat a skillet until hot, add pancetta and fry for 3-4 minutes until golden and cooked through.

Step 7

Add chicken, lettuce and 2/3 of the pancetta to the pasta and toss to combine.
