Instructions

  1. Let the olive oil get very hot in a pan. Add the onions and fry for 1 minute, then add the crushed (if you like it just chopped) garlic and the only lightly salted prawns (also works great with frozen prawns!). Simmer in it for a good 10 minutes. After about 5 minutes add the rosemary and the remaining herbs. Serve with fresh ciabatta and e.g. a tomato salad.
  2. I also like to make this dish in the wok directly on the table, very cozy and smells wonderful. Bay leaves and basil are also really not absolutely necessary. But there are more prawns per person.

About Editorial Staff

The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
