Ingredients

20 Pieces Peeled and deviened local prawns
400 g 1 Medium broccoli head (approx 400g with the central stalk)
150 g Homemade sundried tomatoes
4 tbs Extra virgin olive oil
0.5 tbs Chopped green chili
400 g Dry penne pasta
2 pieces Large red chilis
To taste Sea salt

Steps

Separate the broccoli florets from the central stalk (you can use the stalk later for soup). Cut or slice the florets into smaller pieces as you prefer. Chop the garlic, chili and basil.
Bring a large pot of salted water (2tbs of salt) to the boil. Cook the pasta as per the packet instructions, but drain and reserve two to three minutes less than the usual time indicated. Toss and cook for one minute. While stirring, add the prawns and toss again.
Place a large pan over a medium heat. Once warm, add olive oil and the garlic, basil and chili all at once. Stir well and quickly add the broccoli florets, paying attention not to burn the garlic.
Season with a little salt and add one cup of stock. Add the sun-dried tomatoes and toss. Cook until prawns are pale and no longer translucent (Four minutes max). Add the pasta and toss well to coat. Add 2nd cup of stock and cook the sauce / pasta mixture for 2/3 minutes.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
