Tired...

Quick post this evening. I got home late and was too exhausted to spend time marinating any chicken, so I didn't try that recipe out today. Instead I tried out Giada's 10 minute pasta recipe. It actually probably took 15 minutes in total. 5 to boil the water (I have a broken burner and when I turn it on high it gets ridiculously hot). Chopped the herbs & parsley. Toasted the ground pepper while the water boiled. Tossed the pasta in the water and let it cook for 10 min. At the same time I added olive oil to the toasted pepper and let that stay on low until the pasta was finished. And whala! (I had to google how to spell that. Sad I know.) A simple toss of the pasta with the chopped herbs, prosciutto, oil with pepper, parmesan and a little pasta water. Super quick dinner and it was REALLY good!! Perfect for a late work night when you're craving more than a PB&J. Which sadly I never crave, because I really want a gourmet meal every night. Whatevs. That's what Giada 10-minute pasta is for.
