This easy, gorgeous-looking, classic Roman side dish of peas and prosciutto comes together in under 20 minutes. You'll love the classic flavor combination of sweet, tender peas and salty prosciutto. All you have to do is crisp up the prosciutto in a skillet. Soften up some shallot, add the peas, and cook until they're the perfect consistency. Stir in some fresh mint for brightness and color, then crumble the crispy prosciutto over. Serve this as a side at your next holiday feast or dinner party, and none of your guests will be disappointed.
