Ingredients

  • 350 g pasta shapes I like to use gigli or fusilli
  • 500 g raw king prawns
  • 3 cloves of garlic finely chopped
  • 1 lemon grated zest and juice of 1/2
  • 150 g feta cheese crumbled
  • Small handful of parsley chopped
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • salt and pepper

Instructions

  • Firstly cook the pasta in salted boiling water.
  • While the pasta is cooking, heat the olive oil in a frying pan and pan-fry the prawns for a few minutes, then add the garlic. Cook for another minute but be careful not to let the garlic burn.
  • Squeeze in the lemon juice, add the zest and a good pinch of pepper.
  • Drain the pasta once cooked, and return it to the frying pan and mix the pasta with all the other ingredients coating it well. Crumble the feta and add the parsley and give it all a good stir.
  • Serve immediately and enjoy!
