In this episode of Food and Fitness, you will learn how to make a simple yet satisfying dish of Garlic Prawns with Green Beans. Healthy and delicious, this dish is one to keep in mind any day of the week. 

INGREDIENTS

8-12 king prawns

100g green beans

6 cherry tomatoes

20g pine nuts

A handful of basil

1 garlic clove (crushed)

½ red chilli (adjust to your heat preference)

METHOD

Cook your green beans as you like, steam for 2 - 3 minutes to ensure you retain a nice bite. Or you can boil for 2 - 3 minutes and serve straight away.

Prep the prawns by slicing across the back of the prawns to open up (butterfly) the flesh.

Put the pan on a high/medium heat. Add oil to the plan, along with tomatoes and add the chillis.

In a clockwise rotation (so that you know where you started) add the prawns and cook on the first side for 1 - 1 ½ minutes then turn over when the prawns turn opaque and have a golden char on the edges.

Turn over in the same rotation to ensure all the prawns cook for the same amount of time and cook on the second side for 60 seconds. Add the garlic and pine nuts for the second half to cook off the raw taste of the garlic and to toast both without letting the prawns take on too much colour as this will make them bitter tasting.

Plate your green beans across your plate and pour the tomatoes and prawns on the top.

Finish with a twist of lemon...enjoy!
