Ingredients

• 12 oz egg noodles
• 1 cup ham
• 2 tbsp unsalted butter
• 2 cloves garlic cloves
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 cup chicken broth
• 1 cup frozen peas
• 0.5 tsp salt
• 0.25 tsp black pepper
• 2 tbsp parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the egg noodles according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

Step 2

While the noodles are cooking, dice the ham into small cubes and mince the garlic cloves.

Step 3

In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Step 4

Add the diced ham to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the ham begins to brown slightly.

Step 5

Reduce the heat to medium-low and stir in the heavy cream, chicken broth, salt, and black pepper. Let the mixture simmer gently for 3-4 minutes.

Step 6

Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and frozen peas. Continue to cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until the cheese is melted, and the peas are heated through.

Step 7

Add the cooked noodles to the skillet and toss to combine, ensuring the noodles are fully coated in the creamy sauce.

Step 8

Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper, if needed.

Step 9

Serve hot, garnished with chopped parsley if desired.
