Prawn and chorizo linguine with lime
|
Ingredients
3 raw tiger prawns, shells and heads removed and reserved for stock
1 fish stock cube
100g/3½oz linguine
1 tbsp olive oil, plus extra for drizzling
1 garlic clove
1 x 2.5cm/1in piece chorizo, cut into small cubes
1 tomato, chopped
½ tbsp red wine vinegar
½ lime, juice only
salt and freshly ground black pepper
Preparation method
-
Bring a pan of salted water to the boil. Add the
prawn shells and heads to the boiling water along with the fish stock
cube, stirring until the stock cube has dissolved.
-
Add the linguine to the pan and cook according to
packet instructions, or until the pasta is al dente. Remove the prawn
shells and heads with a slotted spoon and discard, then drain the pasta
and set aside.
-
Heat the olive oil in a frying pan and fry the
garlic for 1 minute, or until softened. Add the chorizo and prawns and
fry for 2-3 minutes, or until golden-brown all over. Stir in the chopped
tomato and red wine vinegar and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the
mixture has thickened and the prawns are cooked through (they should be
pink and opaque).
-
Remove the pan from the heat and add the pasta,
mixing well to coat in the sauce. Add a squeeze of lime juice and
season, to taste, with salt and pepper.
-
Put the pasta on a plate, drizzle over some olive oil and serve.
