Ingredients
350g Dried Asda Tagliatelle
2 tbsp Olive Oil
5 Garlic Cloves, finely sliced
1 Red Chillies, deseeded and finely chopped
450g Jumbo Cooked King Prawns
2 Lemons, zested, plus wedges to serve
2 Medium Courgettes, spiralised or cut into thin ribbons by hand
Fresh Basil, to serve (optional)
Knob of Butter, softened
Method
1
Bring a pan of salted water to the boil, then add the pasta. Cook for 7–9 mins.
2
Meanwhile, heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a roomy pan set over a low-medium heat and add the garlic and chopped chilli. Gently cook for 2 mins or until the garlic is a pale golden colour. Add the prawns and the zest of 1½ lemons. Toss the prawns to coat in the flavoured oil. Spoon into a bowl.
3
Add the remaining 1 tbsp oil to the pan and fry the courgette ribbons over a high heat for 1 min to wilt. Add the prawns and pasta, toss well to coat, then cover and set aside.
4
Add the basil, if using, and a knob of softened butter. Season well and toss everything together making sure the pasta is well coated. Serve with extra black pepper and extra lemon wedges for squeezing.
