3 oz Prosciutto
6 oz Cavatappi Pasta
8 oz Broccoli
1 each Lemon
3 tbsp Basil Pesto
¼ cup Grated Parmesan Cheese
2 tbsp Crème Fraîche
¼ tsp Crushed Red Pepper Flakes
How to make it
1
Bring a medium pot of salted water (3/4 full) to a boil. Rinse and dry all produce. Trim the broccoli stem and roughly chop the broccoli. Halve the lemon and squeeze the juice into a bowl. Remove the plastic liner from the prosciutto, stack, and thinly slice crosswise.
2
Add the pasta to the boiling water. Cook stirring occasionally 8-10 minutes until al dente. Drain, reserving 1/2 cup pasta water.
3
Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large pan over medium-high. Add the sliced prosciutto. Cook stirring frequently, breaking apart any clumps, 4-5 minutes until crispy. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate, leaving the fond.
4
Heat a drizzle of olive oil in the pan of fond over medium-high. Add the broccoli and as much red pepper flake as you like; season. Cook stirring occasionally 3-4 minutes until lightly browned. Add 1/4 cup water (it may spatter). Loosely tent with foil and cook undisturbed 3-4 minutes until the broccoli is tender and the water cooks off.
5
Add the cooked pasta and half the reserved pasta water to the pan (it may spatter). Cook stirring constantly 1-2 minutes until combined. Remove from heat. Stir in the pesto, creme fraiche, and lemon juice until combined and the pasta is coated, adding more water gradually if needed. Taste and season. Serve topped with the crispy prosciutto and parmesan.

Crispy Prosciutto & Lemon Pesto Pasta

Crispy Prosciutto & Lemon Pesto Pasta (with Broccoli & Parmesan) is a Pork meal from Blue Apron. The recipe format follows Blue Apron's standard approach of pre-measured ingredients and step-by-step instructions.

Pasta is a type of food typically made from an unleavened dough of wheat flour mixed with water or eggs, and formed into sheets or other shapes, then cooked by boiling or baking. Pasta was originally only made with durum, although the definition has been expanded to include alternatives for a gluten-free diet, such as rice flour, or legumes such as beans or lentils. [1]
