Spec me a prawn dish

[Woden]

Took a bag of king prawns out of the freezer last night and I have no idea what to do with them, at all
I normally chuck them in a curry or a stir-fry, but don't fancy that.

Will be going to Asda later, so I am totally open on ingredients.

Have you tried cooking them in a Paella dish? Lovely with it alone or some Chorizo.

Excellent choice Ma'am

Can't go wrong with it there'll be loads of recipes out there for it with chicken, Chorizo, mussels, etc. and some that are more basic (with just prawns and another meat) but BBC Food has a good variety of them like this one so it may be worth seeing which one appeals to you more.

Something Cajun? Etouffee would be great way to use up some prawns.

Paella, risotto, something like linguine gamberi.

Embarrasing to admit but .... Tried paelle, somehow managed to undercook the rice :|

Prawn curry rocks too. But yeah paella would be a great choice.

Did you at least enjoy it despite the undercooked rice?

I would do a paste with chopped (good quality!) cherry tomatoes, basil, olive oil, shallot, garlic...maybe some clams as well?

Keep it simple!
