INGREDIENTS:


  • 2 oz pappardelle
    1 1/2 lbs baby artichokes
    3 tbs olive oil
    4 oz sliced prosciutto cut into strips
    2 tbs minced garlic
    1 tbs chopped fresh sage
    3/4 cp sliced Greek Kalamata Pitted Olives
    1/4 cp lemon juice
    3 tbs chopped parsley
    1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
    Salt to taste



     

  • DIRECTIONS:

     

    Cook Pappardelle according to package directions. Drain and set aside.

    Prepare artichokes by removing (and discarding) tough outer leaves until tender yellow interior leaves are exposed. 

     

    Cut off the stem and a 1/2-inch of the top. Slice each prepared artichoke into thin wedges and place in a bowl of acidulated water (2 quarts water with the juice of 1 lemon) to set aside.

    Heat oil in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat. Drain artichokes well and add to pan. Cook 2 to 3 minutes on each side until golden.

     

    Stir in prosciutto, garlic and sage. Cook 1 to 2 minutes; add olives, lemon juice, parsley and red pepper flakes. Toss with cooked Pappardelle . Season with salt if desired.
