Capelli d’Angelo alla Nanni

Ingredients

8 oz. Barilla Capellini 

2 tsp. salted butter

4 oz. prosciutto ham

4 mushrooms, sliced thin

12 oz. Jasper's Marinara Sauce

4 oz. heavy cream

1/4 tsp. red pepper flakes

4 oz. Romano cheese

 Method

Cook pasta al dente according to package directions. 

Melt 2 tsp. butter in a saute'  pan over medium high heat. Add prosciutto and let it crisp, then add sliced mushrooms. Saute for 2 minutes.

Stir in marinara sauce and cream, red pepper flakes, peas and Romano cheese. Bring to a light boil. Add cooked pasta and toss. Serve immediately. 

Be careful to cook the pasta al dente as it can become soggy very quickly and soak up all of the sauce.
