Ingredients:
Amount Ingredient
1/2 cup fat-skimmed chicken broth
2 cup low-fat (1%) milk
3/4 lb dried fettuccine
1/2 cup frozen petite peas - (10-oz pkg)
1 oz thin-sliced prosciutto
1/2 tsp cornstarch
1 cup reduced-fat sour cream
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
1/4 tsp freshly-grated nutmeg
(or ground nutmeg)
Salt to taste
Instructions:
Instructions: In a 5- to 6-quart pan, combine broth, milk, and fettuccine (break fettuccine if necessary to fit into pan); cover and bring to a boil over high heat, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to medium-high and cook, uncovered, stirring often to separate noodles, for 5 minutes. Add peas and stir occasionally until pasta is tender to bite, 2 to 4 minutes longer.

Meanwhile, separate prosciutto slices and cut crosswise into 1/4-inch-wide strips.

In a small bowl, mix cornstarch with 2 tablespoons water until smooth. Add to pasta mixture and stir until it boils and thickens. Add sour cream, parmesan cheese, nutmeg, and salt and pepper to taste; stir until well blended and heated through, about 1 minute. Stir in prosciutto. Spoon onto plates.
