Description

A delicious and nutritious recipe for King Prawn in Pistachio Butter made with Marks & Spencer Kitchenware


Ingredients

  • 50g shelled pistachios
  • 2 garlic cloves, roughly chopped
  • 1/4 tsp coriander seeds
  • 60g butter
  • 25g flat leaf parsley
  • zest and juice of 1 lemon, plus 1 more as garnish
  • 1 tbsp white wine
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 pack king prawns
  • 1 microwave rice pouch
  • 30g watercress or other salad leaves

Instructions

  1. Place the pistachios, garlic and coriander seeds into the chopper and blitz to a coarse crumb.
  2. Add the butter, parsley, lemon juice and zest and white wine and blitz again until it all comes together into a green butter. Season to taste.
  3. Heat the butter in a large frying pan on a medium heat. Once melted, add the prawns and cook for 5 minutes until they are all cooked through. If you need to, add a splash of water to the pan to loosen it up.

  5. Divide the rice between two plates, top with the prawns and serve with a large helping of watercress or other salad and a squeeze of lemon juice on top.
