Cooking Steps

Prep
1
  • Before starting, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high (use same for 4 servings). Wash and dry all produce. 
  • Mince or grate garlic.
  • Peel, then finely chop shallot.
  • Zest, then juice half the lemon (whole lemon for 4 servings). Cut any remaining lemon into wedges.
Crisp prosciutto and make pesto-ricotta
2
  • Cut prosciutto in half lengthwise, then into 1/2 inch slices.
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium, add prosciutto. Cook for 5-7, stirring often, until crispy.
  • Transfer prosciutto to a plate. Carefully wipe the pan clean.
  • Meanwhile, to a medium bowl, add pesto, ricotta, lemon zest and 1 tsp (2 tsp) lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper, then stir to combine.
Make cream sauce
3
  • Reheat the same pan to medium. Add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter, shallots and garlic. Cook for 1 min, stirring often, until slightly softened.
  • Add Cream Sauce Spice Blend. Cook for 1 min, stirring frequently, until fragrant.
  • Add 1/2 cup (1 cup) water and peas. Whisk to combine. Reduce heat to low. Cook for 4-5 min, stirring occasionally, until thickened.
  • Add Parmesan. Season with salt and pepper, then stir to combine.
Cook pasta
4
  • To the boiling water, add linguine. Cook for 2-4 min, stirring occasionally, until tender but still firm to the bite. 
  • Reserve 1/2 cup (1 cup) pasta water.
  • Strain linguine, then return to the pot. Reduce heat to low.
Finish pasta
5
  • To the pot with linguine, add cream sauce, reserved pasta water, pesto-ricotta mixture, remaining lemon juice and half the prosciutto. Stir vigorously to combine. Season with salt and pepper.
Finish and serve
