Pasta With Mushrooms and Prosciutto image

Getting the consistency of the creamy mushroom sauce right is key for this pasta recipe. You want to reduce it just until it clings to the pasta to create a light coating; be careful not to reduce it too much.

Categories     Bon Appétit     Pasta     Dinner     Mushroom     Prosciutto     Shallot     Quick & Easy

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons olive oil
2 ounces thinly sliced prosciutto (about 6 slices)
1 pound mixed mushrooms (such as chanterelles, maitake, oyster, crimini, and/or shiitake), torn into bite-size pieces
2 medium shallots, finely chopped
1 teaspoon thyme leaves, plus more for serving
Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
1 cup chicken stock or low-sodium chicken broth
12 ounces pappardelle or fettuccine
1/3 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons unsalted butter

Steps:

  • Heat 1/4 cup oil in a large Dutch oven or other heavy pot over medium. Arrange prosciutto in a single layer in pot and cook, turning once or twice, until crisp, about 5 minutes. Transfer to paper towels to drain.
  • Heat remaining 2 Tbsp. oil in same pot over high. Cook mushrooms, tossing occasionally, until browned and tender, 5-8 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low. Add shallots and 1 tsp. thyme, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring often, until shallots are translucent and softened, about 2 minutes. Add stock and reduce heat to low. Bring to a simmer and cook until only a thin layer of stock coats bottom of pot, 5−7 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, cook pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water, stirring occasionally, until very al dente, about 3 minutes less than package directions.
  • Using tongs, transfer pasta to pot with mushrooms and add 1 cup pasta cooking liquid. Crumble half of prosciutto into pot. Increase heat to medium, bring to a simmer, and cook, tossing constantly, until pasta is al dente and liquid is slightly thickened, about 2 minutes. Add cream, return to a simmer, and cook, tossing, until pasta is coated, about 1 minute. Remove from heat, add butter, and toss to combine. Taste and season with salt if needed.
  • Divide pasta among bowls. Top with more thyme and crumble remaining prosciutto over; season with pepper.

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:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the pasta will taste. Look for fresh prosciutto, Asiago cheese, and pasta.
  • Cook the pasta al dente: This means that the pasta should be cooked until it is tender but still has a slight bite to it. Do not overcook the pasta, or it will become mushy.
  • Sauté the prosciutto until it is crispy: This will add flavor and texture to the pasta. Be careful not to overcook the prosciutto, or it will become tough.
  • Use a good quality olive oil: Olive oil is the best choice for this recipe because it has a light flavor that will not overpower the other ingredients.
  • Add the pasta to the sauce and toss to coat: This will ensure that the pasta is evenly coated with the sauce.
  • Serve immediately: Pasta is best served hot, so do not let it sit for too long before eating.

Conclusion:

This pasta with prosciutto and Asiago cheese is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal.
