Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
¼ cup olive oil
¼ cup minced garlic
5 roma tomatoes, seeded and chopped
8 ounces prosciutto, cut into thin slices
4 chicken breasts, grilled and cut into strips or cubes
2 tablespoons butter
½ cup fresh basil, sliced into small strips
¾ lb linguine
5 roasted Padilla chiles, peeled, seeded and cut into strips
2 roasted red peppers, peeled, seeded and cut into strips
Grated parmesan to taste

Directions:
Directions:
Heat oil in a large skillet and sauté garlic until soft and light brown, about 2 minutes. Add tomatoes, prosciutto, chicken, and butter; sauté for about 8-10 minutes. Add basil and cook another 5 minutes. In a stockpot, bring water to a boil and cook linguine until firm, al dente. Drain pasta and transfer to a bowl, add the chicken/tomato mixture, roasted peppers and grated cheese; toss gently to combine. Sprinkle with more fresh sliced basil for garnish and serve.

My little tip for this meal:

I grill the peppers on the BBQ until they are black & roasted. Then I let them steam in a bowl with a towel and/or saran wrap over them until the skin peels off easily. If you don’t want to use the bbq, broil works in your oven too.
