INSTRUCTIONS
TO MAKE THE PASTA: Bring 3 quarts of salted water to a boil, add the
pasta and cook according to package directions.
TO MAKE THE SAUCE: In a non-stick 12-inch wide skillet, over medium
high heat, heat the olive oil. Add the shallots, garlic, prosciutto
ham and spinach and cook, stirring, for about 15 seconds. Add the
white wine or chicken stock and simmer for 2 to 3 minutes or until
only half of the liquid remains. Add the fresh tomatoes and remove
the skillet from the heat; add salt and pepper to taste.
TO FINISH THE DISH AND SERVE: When the pasta is 2 to 3 minutes away
from being cooked, return the skillet to the heat and stirring, bring
the sauce back to a simmer. Cook for 1 minute and add the basil.
Drain the pasta, return it to the cooking pot, add the sauce and toss
until well combined. Serve immediately and garnish each portion with
grated Parmesan cheese.
* Bring 2 quarts of water to a boil. Drop the tomatoes into the water
and boil for 30 seconds. Remove the tomatoes with a slotted spoon.
With a knife remove the core, then cut each tomato in half,
horizontally. Spoon out the seeds and squeeze out any juice. Finely
chop the flesh.
