Preparation method
Prep: 20 mins | Cook: 40 mins1.
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to the boil. Cook pasta for 8 to 10 minutes, or until al dente. Drain, and set aside.

Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Cook and stir chicken cubes, reducing heat if necessary, until no longer pink in centre. Set aside.

In a medium saucepan, bring 450ml of the cream to a simmer, stirring often. Whisk in chicken stock cube and Asiago cheese until well blended. Dissolve cornflour in 2 tablespoons water, and whisk into mixture. Cook and stir 2 minutes more, then remove from heat and set aside.
4.
Melt butter in a medium frying pan over medium high heat. Stir in prosciutto, garlic and mushrooms and cook until mushrooms are tender, about 3 minutes. Add chicken, reduce heat and continue cooking until chicken is heated through. Return sauce to the heat and add remaining cream and parsley. Heat through.

To serve, place pasta in a large mixing or serving bowl. Add chicken and mushroom mixture and pour in cream sauce. Toss well, and serve.
