1
Cook the Tortellini
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the cheese tortellini and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
2
Sauté the Prosciutto and Peas
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced smoked prosciutto and sauté until crispy, about 3-4 minutes. Add the frozen peas and sauté for another 2 minutes until heated through.
3
Prepare the Garlic Cream Sauce
Mince the garlic and add it to the skillet. Sauté for 1 minute until fragrant. Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until melted and the sauce is creamy.
4
Combine and Serve
Add the cooked tortellini to the skillet and toss to coat in the garlic cream sauce. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Serve immediately, garnished with additional Parmesan if desired.
