Healthy Crispy Prosciutto and Creamy Egg Pasta with Fresh Peas
Enjoy a comforting yet healthy twist on traditional pasta with crispy prosciutto, a creamy egg sauce, and burst of sweetness from fresh peas. The dish is full of texture and flavor, combining the savory crispiness of prosciutto with the silky richness of eggs over a bed of al dente whole wheat pasta.
INGREDIENTS
2 slices Prosciutto (50g)
2 ounces Whole Wheat Pasta (56g)
2 large Eggs
0.5 cup Fresh Peas (80g)
1 tsp Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to boil and cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside, reserving a little pasta water.
In a non-stick skillet, add olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the prosciutto slices and cook until they become crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove the prosciutto and set aside on paper towels.
In the same skillet, add the fresh peas and sauté for 2-3 minutes until just tender.
In a bowl, whisk the eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper. Add the drained pasta to the skillet with peas, then reduce the heat to low and pour in the egg mixture. Toss quickly to evenly coat the pasta, using a little of the reserved pasta water if needed for creaminess. The residual heat will gently cook the eggs, creating a creamy sauce.
Crumble or slice the crispy prosciutto and toss it into the pasta. Gently mix until all ingredients are well combined and heated through.
Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed before serving.
