Ham and Noodle One Pot Meal
Creamy white sauce, parmesan cheese, ham, and peas come together to create a rich and comforting dish.
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 white onion, diced
- 1 lb precooked ham steak, diced
- 1 tbsp minced garlic
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ tsp pepper
- 1 tsp dried parsley
- 1 tsp dried basil
- ½ tsp oregano
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- 4 cups chicken broth
- 2 cups milk
- 16 oz dry penne pasta
- 2 cups frozen sweet peas
- ½ cup parmesan cheese
Instructions
- To a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat, add the oil. Once hot, add in the onion and ham and cook, stirring frequently, for 5-7 minutes, or until the ham is a nice golden color.
- Stir in the minced garlic, and all of the seasonings. Stir in the flour and cook for 1 minute, or until the flour turns a golden color. Slowly stir in the broth. Pour it in slowly so no clumps form. Stir in the milk.
- Bring to a simmer, then add in the pasta. Simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the pasta is cooked. If the liquid gets too low, add 1/2 cup water at a time until the pasta is tender.
- Stir in the frozen peas and let them simmer in the pot for 2-3 minutes. Stir in the parmesan cheese. Enjoy!

Tried this recipe?Let us know how it was!
I just made this recipe a few days ago and OH MY GOSH it is deliscious! My whole family loved it.
This recipe is a win. I made a few changes including:
Had some half and half to use up so used it and milk.
Also, used a 10 oz bag of peas and added a package of sliced mushrooms because yum.
Lastly, my lazy weeknight tip is I bought 2, 8oz packages of diced ham. Had prepped onion in freezer so was a 30 minute meal!
Delicious, I only had 1/2 pound of ham so added in 1/2lb diced mushrooms. Really tasty!
I made this for my family last week. My kids can sometimes be picky with new foods. They loved it and asked me to make it again!
Delicious, easy, and budget friendly meal. Perfect instructions and portions.
Making this one tonight!
I halved this recipe and it worked perfectly in a smaller pot. Absolutely delicious! Thanks for another great recipe!
Love all of your videos. This one certainly looks delish and is a must try.
