BAKED PRAWN AND LEMON RISONI
I always keep a bag of prawns in my freezer as they are economical and convenient. Risoni, also known as orzo, is a rice-shaped pasta that is readily available in all supermarkets. This is another staple pantry item I like to keep on hand. With these two items in constant stock, I know I can have a hearty, delicious meal like this one at any time.
Ingredients:
1 cup (220g) risoni
2 tsp chicken stock powder
1 tsp finely grated lemon rind
3 tbsp lemon juice
1 1/2 cups (375ml) boiling water
400g raw peeled prawns (fresh or thawed)
chopped parsley, to taste
shredded lemon rind, to serve (optional)
Method:
Preheat the oven to 180°C.
Place the risoni, chicken stock powder, grated lemon rind, juice and boiling water in a large casserole dish and mix to combine. Cover tightly with a lid or foil and bake for 10 minutes.
Remove from the oven and stir through the prawns. Cover again and cook for a further 10 minutes or until the risoni is soft and the prawns are cooked through.
Season with salt and pepper and stir through the chopped parsley. Sprinkle with shredded lemon rind, and serve immediately.
