Garlic Prawn Pasta

Ingredients

• 500 grams Pasta (I use spaghetti or linquine)
• 3 cloves Garlic, finely chopped
• 1 cup White wine
• 2 tbsps Butter (more if you want more sauce)
• 1 tbsp Olive oil
• 1 pinch Chilli flakes
• 20 Green prawns, peeled except for tails
• 5-6 Semi-dried tomatoes, chopped
• 1 tbsp Lemon juice
• 1 tsp Lemon zest
• 2 tbsps Parsley
• handful Cherry tomatoes, halved
• 1 stalk Bok choy, chopped
• 1 tbsp Parmesan cheese, finely grated

Directions

1. Cook the past in a large saucepan of boiling salted water.  Reserve 1/2 cup of pasta water.  Drain pasta and set aside to keep warm.
2. Put oil in a frying pan with the garlic and heat gently over a low heat.
3. When the oil is hot add the prawns, chilli and half the parsley.  Increase the heat to high and cook for 2-3 minutes. Turn the prawns and cook through.
4. Remove the prawns and set aside.
5. Add the lemon juice and white wine to pan, allow to bubble and reduce for two minutes.  At this point I added the semi-dried tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, bok choy and some pasta water and parmesan.
6. Once the bok choy has cooked down a bit, stir in cold butter and lemon zest until you have a smooth sauce.
7. Add the prawns and pasta and toss through sauce and heat through.
8. Top with remaining parsley and some more grated parmesan cheese.
9. Enjoy!
