Prawn Coriander Linguine Recipe
We all love a quick and easy pasta recipes and this Prawn Coriander Linguine is just that. With the addition of the prawns, the meal feel luxurious and is stirred together in minutes. This is great if you are having friends round for a mid week meal and the dish can be easily adapted for dietary needs be it, Paleo, Gluten Free, Keto and Celiac diets, just swap the wheat pasta for courgette or squash pasta.
The secret to this recipe is the coriander, I have tried the recipe with parsley and to be honest, it just is not the same. The coriander although not traditionally Italian, brings the whole dish together in a different and fresh way.

Tips
You can easily vary the amount of prawns you add, for a midweek meal 200g would feed a family of four easily.
If you are catering for friends you may want to double or treble the prawns to add a real sense of luxury to the dish. The recipe is delicious either way.
If you are catering for vegans you can make the pasta without the prawns, it is delicious.
For Paleo, Gluten Free, Keto and Celiac diets swap the pasta for courgette or squash pasta.
