Asparagus Wrapped in Crisp Prosciutto image

Extremely easy and elegant appetizer. Asparagus spears are wrapped in a sheath of prosciutto, then baked until crispy. A great dish to make ahead, and bake just before serving.

SPAGHETTI WITH ASPARAGUS, SMOKED MOZZARELLA AND PROSCIUTTO



Spaghetti With Asparagus, Smoked Mozzarella and Prosciutto image

Something different than the typical spaghetti with red sauce. This dish bursts with flavor,and is simple to put together. I do omit the salt when I make this and have also used linguine which I actually like better. Delicious with a simple mixed green salad and good crusty bread. Recipe courtesy of Giada De Laurentiis.

ASPARAGUS SPAGHETTI



Asparagus Spaghetti image

Lots of asparagus is grown not too far from our h me. Each spring, when it's being harvested, I'll make several trips to the fields. I put about 40 lbs. in the freezer...with what's left, we gorge ourselves on fried asparagus, beef and asparagus, scalloped asparagus, etc.! It's no problem feeding my husband (he's retired; we have two grown children and four grandsons). He'll eat almost anything I put in front of him. We like this dish with a salad and dessert. It's so easy to prepare-it takes only about half an hour from start to serving.

Provided by Moira Hodgson

Categories     dinner, pastas, main course

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pound medium asparagus
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 shallots, minced
1/4 pound prosciutto, diced
3/4 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon fresh tarragon leaves, chopped
Coarse sea salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
1 pound fettuccine
About 3/4 cup toasted bread crumbs
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan

Steps:

  • Trim the tough ends of the stalks from the asparagus. With a vegetable peeler, pare away any tough skin from the lower half of the stalk. Cut the asparagus into inch-and-a-half pieces on the diagonal.
  • Meanwhile, bring six quarts salted water to boil for the fettuccine. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Steam the asparagus until barely tender. Set aside and keep warm.
  • Melt the butter in a saute pan. Add the shallots and the prosciutto and saute until the shallots are soft. Add the cream and bring to a simmer. Add the tarragon and cook five minutes, or until the sauce has thickened slightly. Season to taste with salt and freshly ground pepper. Add the asparagus and keep warm until the fettuccine is cooked.
  • Cook the fettuccine until al dente. Add it to the sauce and toss. Drain and transfer to a buttered baking dish and sprinkle with bread crumbs and cheese. Bake about 15 minutes or until the top is golden brown.

  • To make the asparagus more tender, blanch it in boiling water for 1-2 minutes before adding it to the pasta.
  • If you don't have heavy cream, you can use milk or half-and-half.
  • To make the sauce more flavorful, add a splash of white wine or lemon juice.
  • Serve the pasta immediately, garnished with fresh parsley or chives.
