- 1 tsp of Dr Oetker Ready-To-Use Lemon Zest

Simmer the linguine until al dente. Meanwhile, heat the tomato chilli sauce, stir in 2 tbsp of white wine and cook off. Sprinkle in the fennel seeds. In the final minute or so, heat the pre-cooked prawns by adding them to the mix. Meanwhile, drain the pasta. Season with sea salt and black pepper and a lashing of olive oil. Stir the sauce in.

INGREDIENTS
- 150g of Chilli & Coriander King Prawns

In a large pan, melt 20g butter and sauté the onion and pancetta. Cook for a few minutes. Pour in 2 tbsp of white wine and simmer off for a minute.

If it’s too thick for your liking, you can add 3 tbsp water, fish stock or milk to get the consistency you like. Strain the sweetcorn and add to the mix. Taste. Season with black pepper and salt if needed. Sprinkle with tarragon, chives or parsley as you prefer – or even a little paprika.
