Spread the love

Ingredients for 2 servings:

  • 250 g spaghetti or linguine
  • 250 g shrimp or king prawns (fresh or frozen, thawed)
  • 200 ml white wine
  • Salt and pepper, freshly ground black
  • 3 garlic cloves
  • 1 tbsp olive oil, good
  • 1 bunch parsley, flat (alternatively arugula)
  • Parmesan, freshly grated

Instructions

Working time approx. 12 minutes; Total time approx. 12 minutes

Cook the spaghetti for 5-6 minutes until not quite cooked. Peel and finely chop the garlic. Peel the shrimp or king prawns and remove the intestines. Lightly sweat the garlic in the olive oil, deglaze with the white wine, season with salt and pepper. When the white wine has reduced by about ¼, stir in the spaghetti, place the shrimp on top and simmer over low heat for 6-7 minutes (for shrimp) or 8-9 minutes (for king prawns), until the shrimp or king prawns are pink and cooked and the spaghetti is cooked but still firm to the bite. In the meantime, roughly chop the parsley and then stir it in and serve. At the table, simply grate Parmesan cheese over the top and enjoy. Serve a mixed salad as a starter.
