Method
- Cook tortellini in a pot of boiling salted water (2 tablespoons salt for 6 quarts water) according to package instructions.
- While tortellini boils, cook garlic, prosciutto, corn, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper, & crushed red pepper flakes (for that extra zing) in butter in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until corn is just tender, 4 to 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, chop tomatoes.
- Combine corn mixture and tomatoes in a large bowl.
- Reserve 1/4 cup pasta-cooking water, then drain tortellini and add to vegetables along with reserved cooking water and basil.
