INGREDIENTS
4 oz Prawns, raw
2 oz Chickpea Pasta (dry)
1 cup Cherry Tomatoes
1/2 tbsp Olive Oil
2 Garlic Cloves
2 tbsp Fresh Basil (chopped)
2 tbsp Fresh Parsley (chopped)
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Toss the cherry tomatoes with a pinch of salt, pepper, and a tiny drizzle of olive oil on a baking sheet. Roast them in the oven for 12-15 minutes until they are soft and slightly caramelized.
While the tomatoes are roasting, cook the chickpea pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside, reserving a little pasta water.
In a large skillet, heat the remaining olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic (from 2 cloves) and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the prawns to the skillet, seasoning with salt and pepper. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until the prawns turn pink and are just cooked through.
Stir in the cooked pasta and toss to combine. If necessary, add a splash of reserved pasta water to help the ingredients meld.
Gently fold in the roasted tomatoes and sprinkle with chopped fresh basil and parsley. Toss again to evenly distribute the herbs.
Serve immediately while warm, enjoying the burst of garlic, herb, and roasted tomato flavors alongside the succulent prawns and hearty chickpea pasta.
