How to make it

  • Using chicken sheers, cut the prawns down the spine and butterfly them.
  • Put them in a frying pan face down with the shells upward in heated oil until browned.
  • Remove the shrimp and keep aside.
  • Using the drippings in the skillet, add crushed garlic and sliced shallots.
  • Simmer until shallots are clear.
  • Add white wine, cream and tomato sauce stirring frequently.
  • Let simmer until sauce is of the desired consistancy.
  • In the skillet with the sauce, re-apply the shrimp and let simmer for another 15 minutes.
  • Cook the rice or pasta and serve the dish with fresh basil sprinkled on top.
  • Bam!

    This sounds wonderful...and so easy! Great for the ever over running basil, this time of year. :) I'll probably serve this over orzo, as I'm a huge orzo fan. Thanks for the addition! :)
