Penne Alla Panna Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a skillet.
• On a high heat, quickly fry the ham or prosciutto until starting to brown, keep stirring it continuously to stop it from burning.
• Turn down to a low heat or if cooking on an electric hob turn it off, pour in 250 ml of cream.
• Add the cayenne pepper and stir in the parmesan.
• If the sauce seems really thick add some more cream, the pasta shouldn't be dry, but neither should it swim in sauce.
• Stir in the pasta and serve straight away.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add penne and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes. Drain and transfer to a large bowl; mix in shrimp and prosciutto.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate. Brush olive oil over chicken breasts and season with salt and pepper. Grill until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), about 5 minutes per side. Cool briefly before slicing into strips. Add to the penne mixture.
• Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C).
• Prepare the sauce by melting butter over medium-low heat. Add garlic, cover, and cook until softened but not browned, about 5 minutes. Pour in Marsala wine and cook for 5 minutes. Stir in heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, milk, chicken broth, cornstarch, mustard, rosemary, thyme, salt, and cayenne pepper. Bring sauce to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until flavors combine, about 10 minutes.
• Pour sauce over the penne mixture and mix well. Transfer to a 9x13-inch baking dish. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese and paprika over the top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the top slightly browns, 10 to 12 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a skillet over medium high heat. Prepare an assembly line for breading your chicken by placing the flour, a beaten egg, and the bread crumbs on 3 separate shallow dishes.
• Dredge chicken in flour, then dip both sides into the egg, then coat with bread crumbs.
• Place breaded chicken in skillet and brown both sides, about 5 minutes total; remove from skillet and set aside.
• Add onions and mushrooms to skillet, and cook, while stirring, until onions begin to soften, about 5 minutes.
• Pour in broth; season with salt and pepper.
• Remove pan from heat and add butter and brandy (or sherry), return to heat and cook about a minute.
• Stir in flour, mixing well.
• Reduce heat to low, stir in broth, return chicken, cover pan and simmer about 8 minutes; stir in cream, heat through, and serve.

Steps:

• In a large stock pot, bring salted water to a boil, but don't add the pasta until the sauce is done. In a large frying pan, saute cubed salmon in 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat until cooked through (but do not overcook). Season with salt and pepper and set aside. Either in the same frying pan or in another large one, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil and saute onion over medium heat until wilted and transparent. Add cream cheese, grano padano, butter and milk. Occasionally stir until ingredients are well blended together. Add sauted salmon, peas and parsley. Remove from heat, cover and set aside. Add penne to boiling water and cook according to package instructions. In a large serving bowl, toss the pasta and sauce together, then serve immediately. NOTE: You might not use all the sauce. The remainder of the sauce can be stored in the refrigerator for several days in an air tight container. When reheating, add a bit of milk to make it creamy again.
