Recipe Info

One Pot Ham and Cheese Tortellini is creamy and flavorful, and cooked all in one pan for a quick weeknight dinner with easy clean up. Ham and cheese are one of the great classic combo, so pairing ham and cheese tortellini to make this one pot meal was a no brainer. It’s loaded with chunks of real ham, tortellini, and loads of cheese.

Ingredients:
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 small onion diced
2 garlic cloves minced
2 cups diced ham
20 ounce package fresh or frozen cheese tortellini
1¾ cups chicken broth
½ cup heavy cream
1½ cups fresh shredded Mozzarella cheese
¼ cup fresh shredded Parmesan cheese
Fresh minced parsley

Instructions:
Heat olive oil in a large, oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add onion and cook, stirring often, until softened. Add diced ham and garlic and cook for several minutes, until browned.
Add chicken broth, tortellini and heavy cream. Stir until combined and bring to a boil. Simmer uncovered for about 8-10 minutes or until most of the liquid is absorbed and tortellini are tender.
Meanwhile, heat the broiler on your oven (place the rack in the center of your oven).
Remove from heat. Stir in half of the Mozzarella and all of the Parmesan cheese until melted.
Top with remaining Mozzarella and place under the preheated broiler for about 3-5 minutes, until golden and bubbly (watch closely to avoid burning). OR if you prefer not to use the broiler, cover and let sit for 5-7 minutes, or until cheese is melted.
Garnish with fresh, chopped parsley and serve immediately.
