Ingredients
  

  • 150 g raw king prawns
  • 150 g cooked crab meat
  • 1 cup chopped parsley
  • 200 g fresh linguine
  • 2 cloves garlic chopped
  • 1 cup Prosecco
  • 1 tsp crushed fresh chillies
  • 4 tbsp butter

Instructions
 

  • Marinate: Marinate the prawns in garlic, half the parsley, salt and pepper.
  • Cook the linguine: Bring a pan of salted water to the boil and cook the linguine according to packet instructions. 
  • Cook the prawns: Add the butter to a heated pan and tip the marinated prawns. Add the crushed chillies and cook for 2 minutes on each side, turning frequently. 
  • Make the sauce: When the prawns start to sizzle and caramelise remove from the pan and add the Prosecco to deglaze the pan. Simmer for a few minutes until the sauce thickens. 
  • Stir in the crab: Add the crab meat and stir, then add the prawns. 
  • Assemble and serve: When the pasta is cooked lift it from the water into the sauce. Sprinkle the parsley, turn off the heat and stir. Taste for seasoning and add a squeeze of lemon juice before serving.
