Prep Work (5 minutes):

1. Boil a kettle. Peel and roughly chop (or grate) the garlic as you wait. Chop the spring onions coarsely.
2. Halve the red chilli(es) lengthwise, remove the seeds, and chop roughly. (For less heat, use less chilli or omit the seeds entirely).

Cooking the Pasta (10 minutes):

1. Heat up some salted water in a saucepan until it starts boiling. With a slight bite in mind, cook the linguine for 8 to 10 minutes after adding it.
2. Save approximately a cup of the starchy pasta water after draining the noodles.

The Flavourful Sauce (5 minutes):

1. Mix the spring onion and chopped chile together. Three tablespoons of olive oil (six tablespoons for larger servings) should be heated over medium heat in a large pan, ideally non-stick.
2. Add the onion and chile combination and heat for two minutes, or until the mixture softens.
3. When the king prawns are pink and fully cooked, add the garlic and simmer for an additional four to five minutes.

Finishing Touches (5 minutes):

1. While the prawns cook, halve the lemon(s) and finely chop the parsley with the stalks.
2. Once cooked, add the linguine to the pan with a couple of splashes of reserved pasta water.
3. For a smaller portion, use­ half a lemon’s juice. If you’re se­rving more, use a whole one­. Stir it in until the linguine is covere­d in sauce. 
4. As a final step, take it away from the­ heat and mix in the cut parsley.

Serving (Optional – 2 minutes):

1. Segment the remaining lemon using a knife. For garlic, chilli, and prawn linguine, use­ bowls for serving. Add a squeeze­ of lemon, a splash of olive oil, and a good amount of black peppe­r.
