Wild Rice Courgette Fennel and Prawn Stir Fry - Frozen Fish Direct
Silky-soft green onions make this rice dish even better. The rice is a hearty base of garlicky sauteed prawns and courgette with herbed lemon sauce.
Ingredients
- 200g peeled raw prawns
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 red onion, finely chopped
- 3 courgette, diced
- 1 fennel bulb, finely chopped
- 225g mixed long-grain and wild rice
- 900ml vegetable stock
- 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
- salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped
- 4 lemon wedges, to serve
- Step-by-Step Method: Wild Rice Courgette Fennel and Prawn Stir Fry
- Rinse the mixed long-grain and wild rice thoroughly under cold water
- Combine rice and vegetable stock in a saucepan, bring to a boil over medium-high heat
- Reduce heat, cover, and simmer the rice for about 25–30 minutes or until tender; drain excess liquid if needed and set aside
- While the rice cooks, finely chop the red onion, dice the courgettes, finely chop the fennel bulb, and chop the garlic cloves
- Pat the peeled raw prawns dry with paper towels
- Heat one tablespoon of olive oil in a large non-stick frying pan or wok over medium heat
- Add prawns to the hot pan in a single layer; sear for 1–2 minutes per side until just pink and opaque, then transfer to a plate and set aside
- Wipe out the pan if needed, return it to the heat, and add the remaining one tablespoon of olive oil
- Add the chopped onion and fennel to the pan; sauté for 3–4 minutes until beginning to soften
- Add the diced courgettes and chopped garlic; cook for 2–3 minutes, stirring, until vegetables are tender but still vibrant
- Season vegetables lightly with salt and freshly ground black pepper
- Add the cooked rice to the pan and toss well with the vegetables to combine; heat through for 1–2 minutes
- Return the prawns to the pan and gently stir to distribute evenly
- Taste and adjust seasoning as needed with salt and black pepper
- Remove from heat and stir in the chopped flat-leaf parsley just before serving
- Spoon the stir fry onto plates or bowls, ensuring an even mix of prawns, rice, and vegetables
- Garnish each serving with a lemon wedge on the side for squeezing over just before eating
