Sweet Chili Prawns and Rice!
Prawns and mixed vegetables with rice and sweet chili salad dressing.
This is a very easy dish to make and, provided you buy good ingredients, is very healthy as well. The prawns we used were already cooked but we've decided when we make this again to pop the prawns in the microwave with the baby corn to firm them up. We had ours with sushi and sugar snap peas on the side (as you can see in the picture!) but that is of course optional. The sweet chili dressing we used is one we found in Tesco. Your favourite brand of sweet chili sauce is perfectly fine to use as well, but we found the dressing wasn't as tangy and worked better, so try to get your hands on some! Serves two.
Ingredients:
- 1 packet of cooked prawns
- 150g white long grain rice
- 4-6 spring onions, chopped.
- 1/2 a carrot, grated.
- 1/2 an onion, diced.
- baby corn, chopped
- 1/2 a tsp each of black pepper, chopped dried chilies, parsley and thyme
- a pinch of salt
- juice from half a lemon
- Sweet chili salad dressing
Step One
Put the rice and the diced onion into a pan and following the instructions on the packet, boil until ready to be drained and served.
Step Two
In a tub (make sure it has a secure lid!) put the prawns, the spring onion and the carrot, along with the lemon juice and the seasonings and give it a good shake to ensure they're mixed and coated.
Step Three
Cook the baby corn in a microwavable dish (following the instructions on the pack!).
Once the rice is ready, plate up and serve with a sweet chili salad dressing or sauce.
