Prawn and Mushroom Spaghetti w/ Lemon and Tarragon

Prawn and Mushroom Spaghetti w/ Lemon and Tarragon

This pasta dish is a fantastic alternative to the classic “Spaghetti & Tomato Sauce”. It’s light but incredibly rich and even more importantly, it’s ridiculously easy to make. The lemon and tarragon means this pasta dish would also work really well with lobster or crab instead of prawns or even just with the mushrooms if you’re not a seafood fan.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups chicken stock
  • 2 lbs prawns peeled & veined
  • 1 1/2 cups Shiitake mushrooms washed and diced
  • 3 cloves of garlic sliced thin
  • Zest & juice of 1 lemon
  • 2 tbsp parsley roughly chopped
  • 1 tsp dried tarragon
  • 1/2 onion finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • Fresh pepper

Directions

In a large skillet on medium heat saute onions, garlic & mushrooms in butter and olive oil until mushrooms lose their moisture (about 10 minutes) Add prawns, tarragon, pepper, lemon zest and juice and saute for 5 minutes. Add chicken stock and bring to a quick boil.

Toss with spaghetti noodles, garnish with parsley and serve with fresh bread.
