Basil Prawns on Penne Pasta


So much flavour in such a simple dish. I put two cups of penne pasta on to cook, diced up an onion, stick of celery and couple of cloves of garlic. I sweated the onions, then added celery and finally garlic.  Then I browned the prawns on both sides and removed them from the pan. Add a 16 oz can of tomato sauce to the pan, bring to a boil and cook half the moisture off. A few minutes before it's done, add a big tablespoon of butter to the pan. Drain cooked pasta and stir it into pan. Just before removing the pan from heat stir in 1 cup chopped fresh basil. Serve and top with fresh grated parmesan cheese.

This is so easy and so good it's hard not to make it every other day.
