The Recipe
Okay.

The recipe I made for my husband this past week!!

"Penne pasta w/ Oyster mushrooms, prosciutto, and Mint"

(substitute button or cremini mushrooms if you need to)

1 tbsp. salt plus 1 tsp. kosher salt
1/2 lb penne pasta
3 tbsp. olive oil
1 lb oyster mushrooms, sliced, tough stems removed
2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1/2 c. chicken broth
1 c. grated fontina cheese
1/2 c. chopped mint
2 slices prosicutto, chopped
freshly ground pepper

1. Bring large pot of water to boil. Add 1 tbsp. salt and penne. Cook until barely tender to bite. Drain, set aside.

2. In the same pot (or not, like I care or did) heat olive oil over high heat. Add mushrooms and remaining tsp of salt and cook, stirring constantly, until mushrooms stop giving off liquid and start to brown, about 10 minutes. Turn heat to med-high and add garlic. Cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Stir in chicken broth and penne and cook until broth is absorbed. Stir in cheese until melted and coating pasta. Take off heat and stir in mint. Top with prosciutto and pepper.

Serve right away or little midgets will throw hammers at you and call you dirty names.
