Peanut Butter Prawns Spaghetti

Cooked this a few weeks back =)  and this is one of my hubby's favorite dish ....it kinda tastes like Thai Shrimp because of the nutty flavor, just added pasta to the saucey dish. 
If you're allergic to shrimps, you can always substitute it with chicken.


Here's the recipe:

Ingredients

1 1/2 - 2  cups chicken stock
1/3 cup peanut butter
1 Tbsp grated ginger
1 Tbsp light soy sauce
2 Tbsp honey
pinch of red pepper flakes, crushed (depends on how hot you want it)
1 garlic clove, chopped
6-8 pcs prawns
pasta, cooked
sliced spring onions
roasted peanuts

1. cook pasta
2. Heat chicken stock, peanut butter, ginger, soy sauce, honey, pepper flakes and garlic in a saucepan, stirring until mixture is smooth.  Bring to a boil.  Remove from heat.  (continuous boiling may make the consistency too thick and finish product may be dry.  Don't worry if the consistency is watery it will thicken when cooled and pasta is combined.  If it becomes too thick just add a little more chicken stock.)
3. While peanut butter mixture is heating, stir fry seasoned prawns just until cook.  Remove from heat.
4. Add the prawns and cooked pasta to the peanut butter mixture and stir well until well combined.
    Season with salt and pepper to taste. 
5. drizzle with roasted peanuts and spring onions for garnish.

Enjoy =)
