Fajita Pasta Recipe

 

This recipe is my own take on a fajita pasta! It was my first time trying it and took inspiration from other recipes online. I don’t really like cheese so I didn’t add any, but you can add as much as you like which will make it so creamy. Let me know if you try it by tagging me on Instagram @kaegoskitchen. 

This recipe serves 2.

Ingredients: 

• 2 tablespoons of oil, I use sunflower
• 1 onion, diced
• 1 bell pepper, diced
• Half a pack of cooked frozen prawns
• 1 pack of fajita seasoning
• 1 can of black beans, drained and rinsed
• 4 handfuls of dry pasta ~ 100g I think 😅
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• Cheese, optional

Method:

Step 1: dice the onion and bell pepper and fry in some oil until soft, season with salt and pepper

Step 2: meanwhile, boil your pasta according to pack instructions. I used brown pasta and cooked it for about 13 minutes

Step 3: add the frozen prawns, black beans and half of the fajita seasoning to the onion and pepper mix. Leave this to cook for about 10 minutes. You might need a drop of water if it starts to catch.

Step 4: drain your pasta, saving about a cup of the pasta water. And add the pasta and pasta water to the prawn veg mix.

Step 5: add the rest of the packet of the fajita seasoning and stir well to mix it all in. Leave it on low for a couple of minutes for all the flavours to come out.

Step 6: add cheese and stir it in if you want to but if not then turn off the heat and dish it up!

It was very tasty and I'll have to try a creamy version where cream and cheese at one point too.

I hope you enjoyed this recipe post.

Bye for now! 👋
