Ingredients

  1. 300g dried linguine
  2. 400g cooked Tiger Prawns, peeled and deveined
  3. 3 tbsp olive oil
  4. 3 garlic cloves, minced
  5. 1 long red chilli, finely sliced (adjust to taste)
  6. Zest and juice of 1 lemon
  7. 60g fresh rocket (arugula), roughly chopped
  8. Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  9. Grated parmesan or pecorino (optional, for serving)
  10. Reserved pasta water (2–3 tbsp, as needed)

Method

  1. Cook the linguine according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside, reserving a little pasta water for later.
  2. In a large pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sliced red chilli, cooking for 1–2 minutes until fragrant.
  3. Add the cooked tiger prawns to the pan and sauté gently for 2–3 minutes, just until heated through.
  4. Add the cooked linguine and lemon zest, tossing to coat the pasta with the garlic, chilli and prawns. Add 2–3 tablespoons of reserved pasta water as needed to create a light sauce.
  5. Add the rocket and lemon juice, tossing gently until the rocket is just wilted and everything is combined.
  6. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Serve immediately with grated Parmesan or pecorino, if desired.

Chef's Tip

For the best prawn linguine, cook the pasta until just al dente and finish it in the pan with the prawns, garlic, chilli, and a splash of reserved pasta water to create a silky light sauce that clings to every strand. Add the rocket at the very end so it wilts gently without losing its fresh peppery flavour. The combination of sweet tiger prawns, bright lemon, and subtle chilli heat creates a perfectly balanced pasta that tastes light, fresh, and full of flavour.
