Bring a large pot of well salted water to boil. Cook pasta, according to the package directions, about 8-10 minutes. Drain; set aside.

Heat oil over medium-high heat in a large saute pan. Saute prosciutto 3-4 minutes, until it starts to crisp up a bit. Deglaze the pan with the white wine; simmer until the liquid is reduced by half, about 3 minutes. Stir in the half and half, chicken stock/broth, garlic powder, if using, and peas.
Add the drained pasta; carefully toss with the sauce. Cook until slightly thickened, about 3 more minutes. Season with salt and cayenne pepper.

Garnish with grated Parmesan cheese.

4 servings.
