Directions

  1. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a rolling boil. Cook angel hair pasta at a boil until tender but still slightly firm, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain the pasta, reserving 1 cup of the cooking water for later use. Transfer the drained pasta to a large serving bowl.

  2. Place tomatoes in a bowl, season with sea salt and black pepper.

  3. Pour 1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil over the tomato mixture and gently toss, set aside.

  4. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat.

  5. Cook and stir sliced shallot in the hot oil until just becoming translucent, 1 to 2 minutes.

  6. Stir garlic into the shallot, continue cooking and stirring 1 minute more. Remove the skillet from heat.

  7. Assemble the dish by adding the tomato mixture, the shallot and garlic mixture, and the prosciutto to the pasta, toss to combine. Use the reserved water from cooking the pasta to make it easier to mix.

  8. Top the pasta dish with basil and Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese to serve.

Recipe Note

A quick, easy, and flavorful fresh pasta dish that showcases the summer's garden bounty! This recipe came about in an effort to use up a few more of those wonderful home-grown tomatoes and fresh basil. Everything was on hand and was easy to throw together. For garlic lovers, the second time I made this dish I used a garlic-infused olive oil;amazing! A crisp green salad is the perfect accompaniment. Enjoy!
