3. To same skillet used to cook chicken, add 1 Tbsp. olive oil. Add diced onion and sauté over low heat until soft, about 10 min. Add prosciutto and saute for 30 sec. Add slow-roasted tomatoes and break up with back of wooden spoon. Heat through for 30 sec. Add cream; remove sauce from heat.
4. Cook pasta according to pkg. directions. When pasta is almost done, reheat sauce over low heat. Add peas and sage to sauce; stir to heat well. When pasta is cooked, drain but do not rinse. Add pasta to sauce in skillet and toss well to combine. Add cheese and parsley; toss again. Place on serving platter and top with chicken.
