Pasta with Asparagus and Prosciutto image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 25m

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)
12 ounces fettuccine
1 1/2 pounds asparagus, tough ends trimmed, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese, plus more for topping

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the prosciutto in a large skillet over medium-high heat until it renders some fat and begins to brown, about 2 minutes. Add the garlic and thyme and cook until the garlic just begins to soften, about 30 seconds. Remove the skillet from the heat and add the wine. Return to the heat and cook until the wine evaporates slightly, about 2 more minutes. Add 1/4 teaspoon salt and pepper to taste. Add the cream and nutmeg and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly, about 3 more minutes.
  • Meanwhile, add the pasta to the boiling water and cook as the label directs, adding the asparagus during the last minute of cooking. Reserve 1/2 cup cooking water, then drain the pasta and asparagus.
  • Add the cheese to the cream sauce and stir to combine. Add the pasta and asparagus and toss to coat, adding some of the reserved cooking water to loosen, if needed. Season with salt and pepper. Divide among bowls and top with more cheese.

Angel Hair Pasta with Peas, Prosciutto, and Lemon image

Categories     Cheese     Pasta     Vegetable     Spring     Prosciutto     Bon Appétit

Yield Makes 2 servings; can be doubled

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 pound angel hair pasta
1/3 cup whipping cream
1 teaspoon grated lemon peel
1 cup shelled fresh peas or frozen petite peas
4 ounces thinly sliced prosciutto, chopped (about 1 cup)
1/3 cup dry white wine
4 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1/3 cup grated pecorino Romano cheese (about 1 ounce)

Steps:

  • Cook pasta in large pot of boiling salted water until tender but still firm to bite. Drain; reserve 3/4 cup pasta cooking liquid.

Add pasta and cheese and toss to coat, adding enough pasta cooking liquid to moisten. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Tips:

  • Use High-Quality Ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will greatly impact the final dish, so make sure to select the freshest and best-quality ingredients you can find.
  • Cook the Pasta Al Dente: Cook the pasta according to the package instructions, but be sure to remove it from the boiling water just before it is fully cooked. This will ensure that it retains a slightly firm texture and doesn't become mushy.
  • Don't Overcook the Asparagus: Asparagus cooks quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. It should be tender but still have a slight crunch to it.
  • Use Freshly Grated Parmesan Cheese: Freshly grated Parmesan cheese has a much better flavor than pre-packaged grated cheese.
  • Season to Taste: Be sure to taste the dish before serving and adjust the seasonings as needed.
