Cookware

chef's knife · colander · cutting board · measuring spoons · medium saucepan · mixing bowls · nonstick skillet · stirring spoon · tongs

Directions

  1. Cook the pasta in well-salted boiling water until just tender, then drain and set aside.
  2. Wash and dry the vegetables and ham; cut the zucchini into half-moon slices, dice the bell pepper, and chop the onion.
  3. Cut the ham into small chunks and place it with the vegetables in a mixing bowl for easy scooping during cooking.
  4. In a hot skillet, melt a knob of butter and swirl to coat the bottom, then add the ham and vegetables; sauté until they start to soften, about 5 minutes.
  5. Shave the parsley leaves from the stems, discard the stems, and finely mince the leaves.
  6. When the vegetables are soft, stir in the parsley and the Alfredo sauce; season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder to taste, and warm through for about 2 minutes.
  7. Add the drained pasta to the skillet and toss everything together until evenly coated and heated through; remove from heat.
  8. Divide the pasta among plates or bowls and serve

Two tips

  • Prep ahead: wash and chop the vegetables and parsley, storing them in the fridge for quick assembly.
  • Leftovers: refrigerate in an airtight container and reheat gently with a splash of pasta water or more Alfredo sauce if needed.
