Categories     Pasta

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pound fresh or frozen cheese tortellini
5 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 garlic clove, minced
11/2 cups halved cherry tomatoes
3/4 cup fresh or frozen baby peas
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 ounces Prosciutto di Parma, cut into thin strips
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese (optional)

Steps:

  • In a large pot of boiling water, cook tortellini until they float; drain. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, over medium-high heat, melt butter. Add onion and garlic, stirring until tender, about 3 minutes. Stir in tomatoes, peas, salt and pepper; cook until just heated through, about 2 minutes. Add hot tortellini and prosciutto and toss gently. Serve with grated cheese, if desired.
