Prosciutto Tortellini With Shrimp
Ready In: 45 mins
Serves: 4
Ingredients
- 20 ounces frozen cheese tortellini
- 1 tablespoon olive oil plus more for tortellini
- 20 large shrimp, peeled and deveined (15- to 20-count)
- 6 ounces mushrooms, sliced
- 4 ounces prosciutto, diced
- 2 tablespoons diced sun-dried tomatoes
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- 1 1⁄2 cups heavy cream (whipping)
- 1⁄2 cup whole milk
- salt
- ground black pepper
- 1⁄4 cup grated parmesan cheese, plus more for garnish
- 3⁄4 cup frozen peas
Directions
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook tortellini just until al dente. Drain; toss with a bit of oil to prevent sticking.
- In the meantime, grill or boil shrimp just until opaque. Drain boiled shrimp. Keep warm.
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat in a large skillet; add mushrooms, prosciutto, tomatoes and garlic. Saute until mushrooms are lightly browned, stirring often to keep garlic from burning. Add cream and milk to skillet. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 4 to 6 minutes, until reduced to a thin sauce. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Reduce heat and stir in Parmesan, peas and cooked tortellini. Cook, stirring constantly, until sauce evenly coats the pasta, 3 to 5 minutes.
- Divide among serving plates; top with shrimp and additional Parmesan.
