Fig and Prosciutto Pasta might be one of the most uncommon pasta dishes you have ever heard of, but I have to tell you, this combination is absolutely incredible. I promise you, give this recipe a try, you will not be disappointed!

Ingredients

• 60 grams Fettuccine Pasta
• 28 grams Prosciutto torn
• 1 Fig sliced thin
• 1 clove Fresh Garlic diced
• 1 tsp Avocado Oil
• ¾ tbsp Unsalted Butter
• ¼ cup Arugula
• 10 g Manchego Cheese chopped
• 1 tsp Black Pepper
• ¼ tsp Salt

Instructions

1. Bring a medium pot with 3 cups of water to boil. Add the fettuccine pasta to the pot and season with a dash of salt. Cook the pasta stirring every few minutes for approximately 8 minutes.
2. While the pasta is cooking, heat a large saute pan to medium heat. Add the oil to the pan and with the torn prosciutto. Cook the prosciutto in the oil for about 3 minutes stirring half way through, this will allow the prosciutto to become a little crispy.
3. Then turn the heat down to medium low and add the butter and diced garlic to the pan. Swirl the butter around the bottom of the pan coating the pan.
4. Once the butter has melted add the arugula to the pan. Toss the arugula in the pan with the butter for about 1 minutes to allow it to wilt some.
5. By now your pasta should be cooked. Strain the pasta and immediately toss into the pan with the arugula and prosciutto, allowing some water to still remain stuck to the pasta.
6. Toss everything together and season with black pepper, cook for 1-2 more minutes to allow the flavor of the garlic and prosciutto to saturate the pasta.
7. After 2 minutes plate your pasta and garnish with your chopped manchengo cheese.
