- 450g cooked king prawns
- 100g stale sourdough
- 1 chopped red chilli
- 500g dried linguine
- Mix the tomatoes with 2 tbsp of oil, half the garlic, half the basil and all the prawns. Season and set aside. Meanwhile, blitz the bread to breadcrumbs. Heat the rest of the oil in a frying pan and fry the breadcrumbs for 3 mins or until golden. Stir in the chilli and the rest of the garlic, and cook for 2 mins. Season, stir in the rest of the basil and set aside.
