This pasta dish is quick and flavorful! Pasta is always an easy option for a busy weeknight dinner.
Ingredients:
1 Tbsp olive oil
1 Tbsp butter
1/2 C. finely minced onion
2 cloves garlic, minced
4 oz. prosciutto, julienne
1 C. heavy cream
Salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 C. frozen peas, defrosted
6 oz. fettuccine
6 oz. spinach fettuccine
1/2 C. grated Parmesan
Directions:
Heat the butter and oil in a large sauté pan, then add the onions and cook until translucent. Then add garlic and prosciutto and cook about a minute more while stirring. Add the cream and bring to a simmer and cook until slightly thickened. Season to taste with pepper and salt only if needed, as the prosciutto adds saltiness. Add the peas and remove from the heat. Cook pasta in well-salted water according to package directions. Return the sauce to the heat. Add the drained pasta and toss until well combined. Add the Parmesan, toss and serve.
