Prawn and Spinach Pasta in Tomato Sauce

Slimming world friendly (Syn free)


Ingredients:
1 packet of king prawns
1 200g bag of washed spinach
1 onion finely chopped
1 clove of garlic finely chopped
250ml chicken stock
200ml passata
2 ripe vine tomatoes roughly chopped
Mixed herbs to season
Salt and Pepper
Chilli flakes (if desired)
Enough linguine pasta for two people ( I always do too much)
 Spray light

Method:

1.  In a lightly sprayed frying pan over a medium heat add the onion and garlic until soft and transluscent.Then add the tomatoes and cook for a few minutes. Add the passata and mixed herbs and season. Add the chicken stock. Bring the sauce to a boil then simmer and reduce until you get a nice thick sauce. Add chilli flakes if desired.

2. Meanwhile boil some water for the pasta and cook pasta according to instructions.

3. Once the sauce has reduced add the spinach and stir occassionally until the spinach is wilted and cooked. Then add the prawns and cook for about 5 to 6 minutes.

4. Drain the pasta reserving a little pasta water and add to the sauce. Stir occasionally until well combined.Serve immediately, and sprinkle some grated parmesan on if desired. (or in my case lots!)
