Ingredients

    1 box (375 mL) bow-tie pasta
    1 shallot, chopped
    1 clove garlic, finely chopped
    3 tbsp (45 mL) olive oil
    1/4 cup (50 mL) dry white wine
    2 tsp (10 mL) lemon juice
    2 cups (500 mL) 35% cream
    1/2 cup (125 mL) Canadian Blue cheese
    2 plum tomatoes, seeds removed and diced
    8 cups (2 L) baby spinach
    4 slices prosciutto, finely julienned
    4 tsp (20 mL) finely diced red bell pepper
    salt and pepper

Preparation

Prep time: 25 min • Cook time: 10 min

Cook the pasta until al dente in a pot of salted boiling water. Drain and set aside.

In a saucepan, saute the shallot and garlic in olive oil. Add salt and pepper. Deglaze with white wine and lemon juice. Allow to reduce almost entirely. Add the cream and the blue cheese. Mix. Add the tomatoes. Allow to reduce halfway. Add the pasta and continue cooking long enough to reheat. Adjust the seasoning, if necessary.

Arrange the spinach on four plates and distribute the pasta.

Garnish with prosciutto and pepper. Serve immediately.

Additional information : Tip: Use a soft, runny Brie instead of blue cheese, or penne pasta instead of farfalle.
