Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large, deep skillet. Add chicken and cook until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 7 to 8 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove chicken and cut into small chunks.
- Add remaining oil, butter, and garlic to the skillet and begin cooking over low heat. Add cilantro and basil and stir to keep the mixture moving. Slowly add cooked chicken, Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, and red pepper. Cook, stirring often to keep the cheese from burning, for about 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add gemelli and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes.
- Drain pasta and return to the pot. Pour in sauce and toss to coat.

CREAMY PROSCIUTTO PASTA
This is a recipe from my Tastes of Home Quick Cooking book of 2006. It originally calls for a jar of alfredo sauce, but I am not a fan so I used Recipe #260818 (Lower Fat Alfredo Sauce) and changed the servings to 3 to get a perfect amount. The pasta is wonderful and through my searches on zaar I haven't found one just like it. It is even better paired along with a glass of red wine!

Steps:
- The cheese selected here are of the best quality. It's your main ingredient of the sauce, try not to cheat. Parmesean/Romano cheese in a can does not melt at all, because of additives. Highly not recommended.
- Boil water for pasta, cooking until al-dente.
- Slice prosciutto into squares.
- Fine Dice Shallots.
- Grate Cheeses.
- Melt butter in a generous sized cooking pan (pan with sides) on low heat. Add shallots and cook till tender/translucent. Add salt and pepper to taste (remember there's alot of salt in these cheeses.) Add heavy cream, stirring constantly until the cream almost boils. Remove from heat. Add drained pasta into pan with cheeses. Stir until you've found decadence in a pan!
- Soon as I can I'll post a picture, but with green pasta, use a white or cream colored serving dish and garnish with parsley and a few ribbons of parmasean cheese! Bon appetito! (cooking time depends really on your pasta choice).
- Variations:.
- For example, skip proscuitto and cook shrimp in sauce before adding pasta and cheese. OMG! Add cooked diced chicken breast. Try pancetta or bacon instead of prosciutto. Use with tortellini? Add Mozarella cheese on top of individual servings and bake it under a 450* pre-heated oven for 10-15 min until mozarella is melted and just starting to brown.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Cook pasta a few minutes less than package instructions suggest. Cut prosciutto into thin strips.
- In a 9-by-13-inch baking dish, toss pasta with spinach, half of prosciutto, milk, ricotta, and garlic. Season with salt and pepper. Top with remaining prosciutto and Parmesan. Bake until golden, 30 to 40 minutes.
Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Freshly grated Parmesan cheese is a must, and use a good quality Alfredo sauce or make your own from scratch.
- Cook the pasta according to the package instructions. Al dente pasta is best, as it will hold up well to the sauce.
- Reserve some of the pasta cooking water. This can be used to thin out the Alfredo sauce if it is too thick.
- Add the cooked pasta to the Alfredo sauce and toss to coat. Be careful not to overmix, as this can break up the pasta.
- Serve immediately, topped with freshly grated Parmesan cheese, crispy prosciutto, and a sprinkle of parsley.
Conclusion:
This Gemelli Alfredo with Prosciutto is a quick and easy weeknight meal that is sure to please the whole family. The creamy Alfredo sauce, salty prosciutto, and fresh Parmesan cheese come together to create a delicious and satisfying dish. Serve with a side of roasted vegetables or a salad for a complete meal.
