Cheats Garlic Butter Shrimp (Prawns) and Mushroom Risotto

Recipe #398232 | 15 min | 5 min prep | add private note

A super simple and super elegant supper dish. Not many people know how well prawns and mushrooms go together but unexpectedly they do. Great to share over a bottle of white wine with plenty of crusty white bread. Feel free to throw in some fresh herbs if you have them to hand, also you can add a little chicken stock if you prefer a wetter risotto or want to reduce the butter

SERVES 2 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

  • 300 g approx king prawns, defrosted (medium size shrimp)
  • 50 g butter
  • 2-4 large garlic cloves, crushed

  1. 1
