Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Kosher salt
1/2 cup diced prosciutto (about 3 1/2 ounces)
1 clove garlic, chopped
2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme
1/2 cup dry white wine
Freshly ground pepper
1 cup heavy cream
Pinch of freshly grated nutmeg (optional)

PASTA WITH PROSCIUTTO AND PEAS



Pasta with Prosciutto and Peas image

Prosciutto -- air-dried Italian ham -- combined with peas and Parmesan cheese is a classic pasta topping.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Pork Recipes

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 10

Coarse salt and ground pepper
12 ounces fettuccine
1 tablespoon butter
1 shallot, finely chopped (1/4 cup)
2/3 cup heavy cream
1 package (10 ounces) frozen peas, thawed
8 slices prosciutto (about 4 ounces total), halved lengthwise and thinly sliced crosswise, about 1 cup
1 tablespoon finely grated lemon zest
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/2 cup finely grated Parmesan cheese, plus more for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook pasta until al dente, according to package instructions. Reserve 1 cup pasta water; drain pasta and return to pot.
  • Meanwhile, make sauce: In a large skillet, melt butter over medium-low heat; add shallot and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add cream, peas, and prosciutto; bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Simmer until peas are heated through, 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Stir in lemon zest and juice. Pour sauce over pasta; add Parmesan, and season generously with salt and pepper. Add enough reserved pasta water to thin sauce as desired. Serve immediately; top with additional Parmesan, if desired.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. This means using fresh, organic produce whenever possible, and choosing high-quality cured meats and cheeses. Good ingredients will make all the difference in the final dish.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment. There are many different ways to make pasta with prosciutto and whole garlic, so feel free to get creative and try different ingredients and techniques.
  • Make sure the pasta is cooked al dente. This means that the pasta should be cooked until it is tender but still has a slight bite to it. Overcooked pasta will be mushy and unpleasant.
  • Don't crowd the pan. When cooking the prosciutto and garlic, make sure to use a large pan so that the ingredients can spread out evenly. Crowding the pan will make it difficult for the ingredients to cook evenly.
  • Use a good quality olive oil. Olive oil is an essential ingredient in many Italian dishes, and it is important to use a good quality oil that has a rich flavor. Extra virgin olive oil is the best choice.
  • Season the pasta with salt and pepper to taste. Once the pasta is cooked, be sure to season it with salt and pepper to taste. This will help to bring out the flavors of the other ingredients.

Conclusion:

Pasta with prosciutto and whole garlic is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. With its simple ingredients and elegant flavors, this dish is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give this recipe a try.
