One Pot Pasta

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • 2 ½ cups cubed fully cooked ham

  • ½ cup chopped onion

  • 3 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

  • ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes

  • salt and pepper to taste

  • 4 cups low-sodium chicken broth

  • 1 ¼ cups fat free half-and-half

  • ¼ cup all-purpose flour

  • 1 (16 ounce) package farfalle (bow tie) pasta

  • 2 cups frozen peas and carrots

  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

  • chopped parsley for garnish

Directions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add ham and onion; saute for about 3 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in Italian seasoning, red pepper flakes, salt and pepper; cook for 2 minutes.

  2. Whisk together chicken broth, half-and-half, and flour in a bowl until smooth; pour into the pot. Stir in farfalle pasta, cover, and cook for 15 minutes.

  3. Add peas and carrots. Cook until pasta is cooked through, about 8 more minutes. Stir in Parmesan cheese and garnish with chopped parsley. Serve immediately.

Cook’s Note

If the consistency is too thick, add a bit more chicken broth.

You can change up this recipe by using a different pasta shape or switching out Parmesan for another cheese.
