  1. Sauté Aromatics: Soften the minced garlic in extra virgin olive oil inside a skillet for 1 minute.

  2. Simmer Sauce: Add the chopped tomatoes and dried oregano, cooking for 8 minutes until slightly thickened.

Chef's Tip

Nutritional Insight: This low-glycemic, calcium-rich seafood pairing supplies a dense protein matrix that protects lean tissue while maintaining metabolic satiety. Culinary Hack: Pat the prawns completely dry with kitchen paper before cooking to prevent excess water from diluting the rich tomato sauce.
