Ok, so maybe I now have a lot of left over bacon. And pancetta. And prosciutto. Whatever. There have to be some consequences (besides poundage) for hosting Iron Chef. Hence, I tweaked a recipe that I saw Christine Cushing do that includes peas and prosciutto. A nice way to dress up peas - an even nicer way to rid yourself of extra pork.
prosciutto - a couple of slices cut into smallish pieces
a teaspoon or so of butter
1/4 onion or shallot chopped
about 2-3 cups of frozen peas, thawed.
Saute onion and prosciutto in butter until onion is softened and prosciutto a bit translucent and cooked looking. Toss in peas and stir gently until peas are cooked through. season with salt and pepper to taste. I am sure you could substitute pancetta or just old fashioned bacon- even diced ham - too.
