Prawn Saganaki

No need to visit Greece for your saganaki fix. Make it at home with my delicious recipe. Prawns are a great source of high-quality protein and provide some of the most important vitamins including vitamin A, E, B12, B6 and Niacin. They are also a rich source of iron that helps in boosting the production of red blood cells.


Ingredients:

  • 1 red onion, halved, thinly sliced
  • 3 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
  • 400g grated or pureed tomatoes or 400g can diced tomatoes
  • 125ml (1/2 cup) white wine
  • 400g green prawns, peeled leaving tails intact, deveined
  • 75g Greek feta, crumbled
  • 1 fresh chilli, diced (optional)
  • Handful chopped fresh continental parsley
  • Olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste


Method: 

  1.  Heat a non-stick deep-frying pan over medium heat. Add a dash of olive oil.
  2. Sauté onion, stirring, for 3 minutes or until soft. Add garlic and chilli, stirring for 1 minute.
  3. Add the ouzo or wine, tomatoes, parsley, salt and pepper and allow the mixture to come to a boil. Once it reaches boiling point, add the prawns. Turn the temperature down to a medium-low simmer. Cook for 10 mins.
  4. Add feta on top and serve among serving dishes. Enjoy!
