This pasta recipe was flavored with a soft crunchy texture from the pistachios. The salty prosciutto was so tender. This simple pasta dish had only six ingredients with each one prominently distinct. A recipe I created when in Sicily, due to the pistachio fame!
Pistachio Pasta
1/2 pound fettuccine
1/4 cup olive oil
1 garlic clove, whole
1/2 cup pistachio's
4 slices of prosciutto di Parma, chopped
parmigiana cheese, grated
pepper to taste
olive oil for drizzle
In a large pot, boil water, add a generous amount of salt and cook pasta till al dente. Meanwhile in a large frying pan, heat olive oil, add garlic clove and cook for 1 minute. Remove and discard, add pistachio's and stir for 2 minutes. Add pasta into pan, toss then plate, add prosciutto, cheese, pepper and drizzle with olive oil.
Your recipes look fabulous! I can't wait to try this one out.

Hello Food Hunter! I must agree, thank you for the comment! :)
ReplyDeleteI love that you've used pistachio's here!
ReplyDeleteChef Chuck, what a great creation. This is going on my list. I make walnut and gorgonzola pasta, but had never thought of - or even seen this combination. It's so refreshing to see something new - particularly with so few (and traditional) ingredients.
