Nutritional yeast is dairy-free and adds umami.

Cook spaghetti in salted boiling water until al dente, about 8-10 minutes.

While pasta cooks, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

Add sliced chorizo to the skillet and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes.

Stir in minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Add drained chickpeas to the skillet and cook until heated through, about 3 minutes.

In a bowl, whisk together eggs, grated parmesan, and black pepper until well combined.

Once pasta is cooked, reserve some pasta water and drain the rest.

Add hot pasta to the skillet with chorizo and chickpeas, tossing to combine.

Remove skillet from heat and quickly pour egg mixture over pasta, stirring rapidly to create a creamy sauce.

If needed, add reserved pasta water a little at a time to reach desired creaminess.

Taste and adjust seasoning with more black pepper if desired.

Garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
