Sriracha Lime Prawn Linguine Food

SRIRACHA & LIME PRAWN LINGUINE

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a saucepan over a medium-high heat and cook the prawns and garlic for 3 mins until the prawns are pink. Remove the prawns to a bowl and set aside.
• Pour the stock into the pan with some seasoning and bring to the boil. Add the pasta and cook, covered, for 10 mins, stirring occasionally. After 5 mins, add the broccoli.
• When the pasta and broccoli have almost cooked through, add the peas. Uncover and continue to cook until the peas have defrosted, about 2-3 mins. Stir in the sriracha and lime zest and juice, then toss through the prawns and garlic. Divide between bowls and top with extra sriracha, or just a grinding of black pepper, if you prefer.

CHILLI PRAWN LINGUINE

Steps:

• To make the dressing, mix 2 tbsp virtually fat-free fromage frais, the grated zest and juice of 2 limes and 2 tsp golden caster sugar in a small bowl and season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
• Cook 280g linguine pasta according to the packet instructions. Add 200g trimmed sugar snap peas for the last minute or so of cooking time.
• Meanwhile, heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a wok or big frying pan, toss in 2 finely chopped large garlic cloves and 1 deseeded and finely chopped large red chilli and cook over a fairly gentle heat for about 30 seconds without letting the garlic brown.
• Tip in 24 peeled raw king prawns and cook over a high heat, stirring frequently, for about 3 minutes until they turn pink.
• Add 12 halved cherry tomatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, for 3 minutes until they just start to soften.
• Drain the linguine pasta and sugar snap peas well, then toss into the prawn mixture.
• Tear in a handful of basil leaves, stir, and season with salt and pepper.
• Serve with mixed salad leaves drizzled with the lime dressing, and warm crusty white bread.
