I’m getting pretty confident in my pasta making skills. I mean, how hard is pasta really? The standard Macaroni and cheese from a box is pretty easy to follow. Then there is the next step up, spaghetti. So, how does one make a more gourmet pasta? Try this on for size:
Pasta alla Me (yep, that’s Me as in your blog owner)
Half a box of your favorite noodles, I used tri-colored Fiori
15 oz Marscapone cheese
2 fresh zucchini, sliced in wedges
3 slices of Prosciutto, cut into bites
crumbled goat cheese to top
kosher salt, pepper
olive oil
1 lb of Chicken
Boil noodles in salted water, drain reserving 1/2 cup of pasta water
saute Chicken in Olive Oil until cooked
let Zucchini soak in drizzled Olive Oil, pepper and kosher salt
cut Chicken into bite size pieces and saute with Zucchini for 2 minutes
add pasta water and Marscapone cheese until dissolves into a light sauce.
Mix with pasta and prosciutto.
Top each bowl with fresh sliced tomatoes and goat cheese, if desired.
Pretty simple and very tasty. I hope you like it!
