Fall Is In The Air........Can You Smell It?

I love fall almost as much as I love pasta! This is one of my favorite shrimp pastas I make. Quick and easy dinner your whole family will devour!

Shrimp Gemelli with Prosciutto In A Cream Sauce

1 Package of Gemelli
4  Prosciutto slices
1  pound  large shrimp, peeled and divined (fresh or frozen)
2 garlic cloves (minced)
1 Cup of  frozen petit peas

 2 Cups of Milk or Cream
2 Tbsp  all-purpose flour
1 tsp   black pepper or white
1  Cup Parmesan cheese (grated)
1/4 Cup Chives (or green onion finely chopped)
1 Tbsp EVOO




Cook pasta according to package directions, drain well; keep warm.

Add olive oil and garlic to pan; then add shrimp and saute over medium-high heat 2 minutes.

Add peas and cook 2 more minutes just until shrimp are done.

Transfer shrimp mixture to a large bowl and keep warm.

Combine milk & flour into a air tight bowl and shake well. Add milk mixture to pan; then add pepper and stir with a whisk. Cook over medium heat  until thick and bubbly, toss in prosciutto stirring constantly with a spoon. Remove pan from heat, add cheese, mix until blended. Toss back in shrimp mixture, stir until combined.  You can mix in pasta or pour over pasta either way.... plate up and manga, manga!
