Pastina with Egg

prosciutto

chicken broth

pastina

eggs (slightly beaten)

parmesan cheese

black pepper

Heat a pot over medium heat on the stovetop and gently rip the prosciutto into thin pieces and add to the pot.

Cook, stirring frequently until the prosciutto is crispy, about 5-6 minutes. Remove it from the pot and allow it to drain on a paper towel.

Add the chicken broth to the pot and bring it to a boil, scraping the bottom of the pot to remove any stuck on bits.

Mix in the pastina and cook, stirring occasionally, until it is al dente, about 6-7 minutes. The mixture should be thickened with little to no liquid left.

Remove the pot off of the heat and slowly add 1/2 cup of the pastina with the beaten eggs, stirring constantly.

Add the egg mixture back to the pot, stirring constantly, until it is completely incorporated.

Mix in the parmesan cheese and black pepper and serve the pastina topped with the crispy prosciutto pieces.

Pastina with Egg is a simple italian dish made from pastina pasta, chicken broth, butter, egg, and parmesan. Pastina is creamy and comforting!

Chicken Pastina with Egg

pastina pasta (or some other similarly small pasta shape)

butter

cheese

black pepper (to taste)

salt (to taste)

In a small saucepan or pot, add broth and bring it up to a soft boil.

Add pastina to the broth and simmer until cooked through and the broth is almost completely absorbed, about 7 minutes. You may have to add more broth depending on how much has been absorbed.

Once the pastina pasta is cooked through, turn off the heat and add one whole egg to the pan. Gently and quickly fold the egg in so that it combines with the stelline pasta and doesn&#39;t scramble in too big of pieces.

Add butter and cheese and allow them to melt. Top with more cheese, salt and black pepper, if desired.
