DELICIOUS PASTA

Fettuccine with Artichokes and Prosciutto combined with a few shallots, a little garlic, some butter and chicken broth is all you’ll need to make this delicious recipe. The combination of the artichokes and prosciutto give this this a distinct Italian flavor.

Baby artichokes are great to use because with a little trimming you can eat the whole thing. As usual I prefer fresh ingredients for all my recipes but if your in a hurry you can use jar artichokes hearts packed in water.

The Prosciutto di Parma that I use for this recipe is expensive but you couldn’t ask for a better tasting cured Italian ham to use in this Fettuccine with Artichokes and Prosciutto recipe. This ham takes nine to eighteen months to process, depending on the size of the ham. This salty delicious ham is of excellent with cantaloupe, asparagus, salads, pizza and in sauces.
