1. Bring 1-1/2 gallons of heavily salted water to a full rolling boil in a large pot, and add 1 Tbsp olive oil. 2. If using dry pasta, add pasta, and cook for 10-12 minutes, until almost al dente. 3. Add asparagus, and cook for about another 1-2 minutes, until pasta is al dente and asparagus is crisp-tender. 4. If using fresh pasta add asparagus to boiling water, allow to return to a boil, add fresh pasta, and cook for another 1-2 minutes, until pasta is al dente and asparagus is crisp-tender. 5. In either case, drain, drizzle with 1 Tbsp olive oil, toss, and set aside until needed. 6. In a large, deep skillet, heat remaining 1 Tbsp olive oil until shimmering. 7. Add scallions, garlic, and prosciutto, and cook until fragrant. 8. Add shrimp, and toss and stir until shrimp is heated. 9. Add cream and cheese, and toss and stir until cheese is melted. 10. Add pasta and asparagus, and toss until everything is combined and heated through. 11. Serve immediately with additional cheese on the side. 12. This goes great with a green salad and hot ciabatta bread with butter. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
