Ingredients

The following ingredients have 3 Servings
  • 1 packet Bowtie Pasta
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 lemon, juiced
  • 1 packet pre-diced ham
  • 1 packet frozen peas
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instruction

  • Set a pot of water to boil. Drop in pasta and cook until al dente, about 8-10 minutes.
  • While you're waiting for the water and pasta, heat a large saute pan and melt butter. Add flour and stir until beginning to slightly brown. You want to cook out the "flour-y" taste and get it somewhat nutty.
  • Add cream and stir until starting to boil and slightly thicken.
  • Turn the heat down just a tad, and add in lemon juice and parmesan cheese. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • In a microwave safe bowl, cook the peas for about 1-2 minutes. Just to warm them through. Then add to pan with sauce, along with ham.
  • Drain the pasta and add to cream sauce. Mix until everything is well-combined and serve hot! Top with fresh parmesan cheese, if desired!
