Ingredients
200g Prawns, defrosted
1 Lemon
1 Bulb garlic, thinly sliced
300g Linguine
1 courgette, grated
Fresh parsley, finely chopped
3-4 tbsp Olive oil
Ground black pepper
Method
1
Add linguine to boiling water, setting your timer to 2 minutes minus the packet time.
2
In a large/ deep frying pan, add the olive oil, garlic and lemon zest into the pan on a low heat. Season with black pepper and gently fry for around 4 minutes. Ensure that the heat is low as we don’t want to burn the garlic!
3
Next, add the courgette into the pan, increase the heat to medium and gently fry until all the moisture has released and evaporated.
4
Once the moisture has evaporated, add the defrosted prawns and undercooked pasta into the pan along with around 3 ladles of pasta water.
5
Stir to combine and continue to cook until the pasta water thickens and turns into a glossy sauce. At this stage, stir the parsley and lemon juice into the pan.
6
Serve with black pepper and enjoy!
