Directions:
Bring broth, cream, garlic, and crushed red pepper
to boil in medium saucepan. Reduce heat and
simmer until liquid is reduced to 3/4 cup, about 20
minutes. Remove from heat. Mix in 1/2 cup
Parmesan cheese and stir. Then keep warm.

Melt butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium
high heat. Add mushrooms; saute until brown and
tender, about 8 minutes. Remove from heat.

Meanwhile, cook pasta in large pot of boiling salted
water until just tender but still firm to bite.

Drain pasta and return to pot. Add cream mixture,
mushrooms and peas and stir over low heat until
well blended with sauce, about 3 minutes. Mix in
proscuitto. Cover and let stand 1 minute. Transfer
to bowl. Serve with the additional Parmesan cheese.
