Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) butter
3 large shallots, minced
3/4 cup low-salt chicken broth
1 cup whipping cream
2 teaspoons grated lemon peel
1 teaspoon grated orange peel
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 cups frozen green peas, thawed
2 tablespoons thinly sliced fresh mint leaves
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
12 ounces penne pasta
12 thin slices prosciutto
Freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Melt butter in large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add shallots and sauté until translucent, about 2 minutes. Add broth. Simmer over medium-high heat until mixture is reduced to 1/4 cup, about 2 minutes. Add cream, lemon peel, orange peel, and cayenne. Simmer until sauce thickens slightly, about 3 minutes. Add peas; simmer just until heated through, about 2 minutes. Stir in mint and lemon juice. Season sauce to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Meanwhile, cook pasta in large pot of boiling salted water until tender but still firm to bite, stirring occasionally. Drain; return pasta to pot. Toss pasta with sauce to coat.
  • Divide pasta among plates or bowls. Drape prosciutto slices atop pasta and serve, passing Parmesan separately.

This pasta was a disaster! The sauce curdled and the prosciutto was tough.

I found this pasta to be a bit bland. I think it needed more seasoning.

This pasta was a bit too rich for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with a lighter sauce.

I'm not a big fan of prosciutto, so I used bacon instead. It was still very good.
