Ingredients you will need:
- 500g of mussels.
- 250g of whole prawns.
- 6 tbsp of olive oil.
- 1 clove of garlic.
- 1 tbsp of chilli flakes.
- 50ml of white wine.
- Lemon juice (1 whole, squeezed).
- Freshly chopped parsley.
- 400g linguine.
- Salt and black peppercorns.
Method
- Start by cleaning your seafood. Scrub your mussels in cold water and remove the beards. Put them to one side. Peel your prawns and remove the heads.
- Heat your olive oil in a large saucepan or cast iron casserole dish on the hob, and cook off your garlic and chilli flakes.
- Once hot, add your mussels and wine, cover, and cook for 2 minutes until they open. Any unopen can be thrown away.
- Add your prawns and cook for an additional 5 minutes.
- Pour over your lemon juice and let simmer.
- During this process, cook your linguine in salted water for 8-10 minutes.
- Once the pasta is cooked, add it to your fish and sprinkle over your parsley and grind fresh black pepper.
- Mix well and serve.
Tip: Crunchy bread is perfect to dip into your seafood sauce.
