Provided by Tara Noland

Categories     Pasta

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 sweet peppers (red, yellow or orange), halved and seeded
1/8 cup olive oil
1/8 cup minced garlic
3 medium tomatoes, chopped
2 ounces (60 g) prosciutto cut into small pieces
½ lb. cooked chicken, cut into cubes
1 1/2 Tbsp. butter
2 tsp. Italian seasoning (or 1 tsp. dried basil and 1 tsp. dried oregano)
Large pinch of red pepper flakes
1 lb (500 g) linguini
¼ cup grated parmesan

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 450F and put a rack at the top of the oven. Place peppers cut side down on a foil-lined baking sheet. Roast on top rack for 20-25 min. or until the skin is charred and pulling away from the pepper. Let cool at room temperature, peel, and slice into thin strips. Heat the oil in a large non-stick frypan and sauté the garlic until lightly brown and soft. Add the tomatoes, prosciutto, chicken, butter, Italian seasoning, and red pepper flakes, sauté for 12-15 minutes. The prosciutto should be just starting to become slightly crispy, careful not to overcook it. Season with salt and pepper being careful with the salt as the prosciutto is salty. In a large stockpot bring salted water to a boil and cook the linguini as per the packaged directions. Reserve a cup of the pasta water then drain the pasta and return it to the stockpot. Add the tomato/chicken mixture to the pasta along with the roasted peppers and parmesan cheese, cook on low heat adding the reserved pasta water as needed until the cheese has melted, the peppers are heated and stirring the mixture to combine.

PASTA WITH PROSCIUTTO AND WHOLE GARLIC



Pasta With Prosciutto and Whole Garlic image

This pasta dish, known as maccheroni alla San Giovanniello in Italy, is amazing in the summer months, when there are good fresh tomatoes around. But you can make it any time of year with canned tomatoes. You could also make it with much less prosciutto, really just enough to season the oil - a quarter cup or so. No matter how much you use, start with a hunk of prosciutto so you can dice chunks; you don't want little thin slices. If you've got great basil, you can even skip the cheese. If you use fresh tomatoes, you can blanch and peel the tomatoes if you don't like the skins, but it's not really necessary.

Categories     dinner, lunch, quick, pastas, main course

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/3 cup olive oil or butter
10 cloves garlic, lightly crushed
1/2 cup prosciutto or other salted ham or slab bacon, cut into cubes or strips
6 plum tomatoes, or 1 1/2 cups drained canned tomatoes
Salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 pound cut pasta, such as ziti or penne
1 cup roughly chopped fresh basil leaves
1 cup freshly grated Pecorino Romano or Parmesan cheese, or a combination

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
  • Combine the oil, garlic, and ham in a medium to large skillet over medium-low heat. Cook slowly, stirring occasionally, until the garlic becomes deep golden, nearly brown, all over, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Core and chop the plum tomatoes (or crush the canned tomatoes) and add them, along with salt and pepper, to the skillet. Stir and simmer while you salt the boiling water and cook the pasta.
  • Drain the pasta when it is tender but firm, reserving a little of the cooking water and adding it to the sauce if it appears dry (quite likely if you used fresh tomatoes). Toss the pasta with the sauce and most of the basil, along with the cheese. Mince the remaining basil, garnish the pasta with it, and serve.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients prepped and measured out. This will help you stay organized and ensure that you don't forget anything.
  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The better the quality of your ingredients, the better your dish will taste. Look for fresh, organic produce and high-quality meats and cheeses.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the chicken, be sure to not overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the chicken from cooking evenly and will result in dry, overcooked chicken.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed pan: A heavy-bottomed pan will help to distribute the heat evenly and prevent the food from sticking.
  • Season the chicken generously: Don't be afraid to season the chicken well with salt and pepper. This will help to bring out the flavor of the chicken.
  • Cook the pasta al dente: Al dente means "to the tooth" in Italian. This means that the pasta should be cooked until it is just tender, but still has a slight bite to it.
  • Use a flavorful sauce: The sauce is what really makes this dish. Be sure to use a flavorful sauce that complements the chicken and pasta.
  • Garnish with fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as basil, parsley, or chives, can add a pop of color and flavor to the dish.

Conclusion:

This garlic chicken pasta with prosciutto is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The combination of tender chicken, flavorful sauce, and al dente pasta is sure to please everyone at the table. With a few simple tips and tricks, you can make this dish even more delicious.
