Lemon, garlic and herb prawn linguine

I wanted something both hearty and light and this met the criteria AND tasted pretty good.

What you’ll need:

3 cloves of crushed garlic

1 tsp oregano

½ tsp black pepper

Juice from half a lemon

About 12 medium sized prawns

½ red onion chopped

75g woodland mushrooms chopped

Pinch of salt

1 tbsp thyme

2 tbsp white wine vinegar

350ml hot water

150ml milk (I used oat milk)

200g gluten free linguine

Method:

1.       Clean your prawns and add the garlic, oregano, black pepper, and lemon to them and set aside

2.       Take the red onion and mushrooms and fry off with salt and thyme for a few minutes on a high heat

3.       Add white wine vinegar, hot water and milk and stir while still on a high heat

4.       Add the linguine and cover for 8 mins. Maintain high heat

5.       Remove the lid, give the spaghetti a mix to stop it from sticking to each other, and add prawns the prawns. Mix in gently and cover for 3-4 minutes until pink

Prawns are a great addition to anyone who consumes animal protein for their B vitamins and Vitamin E levels which promote brain, skin, and eye health, and immune system support.
