Ingredients
- 1 pound whole-wheat noodles (egg pasta recommended), boiled according to package directions, with 1/2 cup pasta cooking water reserved for sauce
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 onion chopped
- 8 ounces ham cut into small dice (about 1 1/2 cups)
- 5 cloves garlic minced
- 1/2 cup white wine
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1/2 cup starchy pasta cooking water
- 1 1/2 cups frozen peas no need to defrost
- 1 cup Parmesan Cheese freshly grated
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- salt and pepper to taste
- extra Parmesan Cheese freshly grated, for serving
Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the onion until it begins to soften, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Stir in the ham and garlic and cook until it becomes fragrant, about 1 minute.
- Pour in the white wine and cook until boiled down almost all the way, 2 to 3 minutes. Add in the broth and reserved pasta cooking water and bring to a boil. Turn down to medium-low and simmer until sauce thickens, 6 to 8 minutes.
- Stir in the frozen peas, grated cheese, and heavy cream and season generously with salt and pepper. Cook while stirring until heated all the way through and sauce is desired consistency. Garnish with extra Parmesan cheese and serve over cooked pasta.
