Ingredients
1 tbsp butter
2 tbsp EVOO
12 prawns
160-200g spaghetti
Chilli flakes
3 cloves of garlic, chopped
Zest of 1 lemon
Juice of ½ lemon
⅓ cup white wine
Salt & black pepper
Italian parsley, chopped (leaves for garnishing at the end)
Steps:
Step 1:
Heat 1 tbsp of butter in a large pan over medium heat. Add prawns and a pinch of salt, sautéing until they turn pink and slightly golden. Remove the shrimp from the pan and set them aside.
Step 2:
In the same pan, add chopped garlic, the stems of chopped Italian parsley, and a pinch of chili flakes. Sauté until the garlic is fragrant and the chili flakes release their aroma.
Step 3:
Pour in ⅓ cup of white wine, the zest of 1 lemon, and the juice of ½ lemon. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Stir the mixture until well combined.
Step 4:
Add your cooked spaghetti back into the pan, along with a splash of leftover pasta water. Toss everything together, letting the sauce cling to the pasta. Add the shrimp back in and cook for another minute until everything is heated through.
Step 5:
Serve the spaghetti hot, garnished with chopped Italian parsley leaves. Enjoy!
