I've been looking at all my cooking and baking pages that I have saved on Facebook to try out and I thought I'd give this recipe a try, this recipe is originally called Bang Bang Shrimp Pasta but I could only find prawns to use for it, so shall we get cooking?

Ingredients:

1 lb of spaghetti (or pasta of choice)

1 1/2 lb prawns/shrimps (1 lb boneless chicken, chopped)

1 1/2 tbsp olive oil

3 garlic cloves, minced

3 tsp paprika

1 tbsp fresh parsley

Black Pepper

1/2 cup Hellman's mayonnaise 

1/2 cup Thai sweet chilli sauce

2 garlic cloves, minced

2 tbsp lime juice (1 lime)

1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes

1/2 tbsp onion powder

I started by prepping all my ingredients that needed cutting like my garlic cloves and juicing my lime, and then I placed the mayonnaise, chilli sauce, lime juice, garlic cloves (2), red pepper flakes and onion powder in a medium bowl and mixed together and then set to one side to use later.

Next I cooked the spaghetti, drained and set to one side. ready to be used later on.

Next in another medium bowl, pop in your prawns/shrimps (or chicken if using chicken), paprika and the last 3 garlic cloves and black pepper and coat them well.

Next in a large skillet/frying pan add the olive oil and then cook the coated prawns/shrimps/chicken and then cook until no longer pink (around 10 minutes).

In a large bowl put the spaghetti, prawns and sauce in together and mix to evenly coated, then add the parsley and give it a mix again, and then it's ready to serve.

To say there was quite a bit of spice in this dish, it did taste really nice especially with the Thai sweet chilli sauce, I'm tempted to give this recipe a try with chicken instead and to also trying it by changing the mayonnaise with some sour cream or cream cheese.
