Cooking steps
1
- Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
- Halve the chilli lengthways, deseed and finely chop.
- Roughly chop the parsley (stalks and all).
- Halve, peel and thinly slice the onion.
2
- Place a pan over medium-high heat with a knob of butter and a drizzle of oil.
- Once hot, add the prawns, onion and garlic.
- Fry until cooked through, stirring occasionally, 4-5 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw prawns. Prawns are cooked when pink on the outside and opaque in the middle.
3
- Add the orzo, muscat and stock along with 400ml water (per 2P).
- Bring to the boil, cover and simmer until the orzo is al dente, 15-20 mins.
- Give it a stir every few mins to prevent sticking.
4
- Once the orzo is cooked, add the creme fraiche, pesto, half the cheese and a knob of butter.
- Stir until well incorporated.
5
- Add the peas, half the chilli (use less if you don't like spice) and half the parsley.
- Cook, stirring to warm through, 1 min.
- Taste and season with salt and pepper.
TIP: Add a little water if you feel the orzo is too dry.
6
- Divide your prawn, pea and pesto orzo between bowls.
- Garnish with remaining parsley, chilli and cheese.
