Method
Step 1
Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
Step 2
Melt butter in a medium saucepan over low heat. Continue heating until light golden brown in color, being very careful not to burn. Render prosciutto until crispy, set aside.
Step 3
Add red pepper; cook 1 additional minute, stirring frequently.
Step 4
Stir in cream and peas. Bring mixture to a boil over medium heat. Reduce sauce by 2/3, stirring frequently.
Step 5
Cook Gemelli according to package directions; drain and return to pot.
Step 6
Toss pasta with sauce until the pasta is coated. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Gently toss with cheese.

Gemelli
Gemelli is a simple shape of two strands of pasta twisted together. These small pasta twists are also remarkably versatile, as their shape holds the flavor of sauce beautifully while retaining the firm "al dente" texture that you expect from Barilla.
Barilla® Gemelli is made with non-GMO ingredients. For more information, please read our position.
