Ingredients
  

  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 onion onion finely chopped
  • 1 garlic clove minced
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 can chopped tomatoes (400g)
  • 1 liter chicken stock (you can use stock cubes)
  • 300 grams linguine or spaghetti broken into smaller pieces
  • 240 grams frozen seafood mix thawed
  • A handful of fresh parsley chopped
  • Lemon wedges for serving

Instructions
 

Prepare the base

  • Start by heating the olive oil in a large frying pan or wok over medium heat.
    Add the chopped onion and garlic, cooking for about 5 minutes until they become soft and translucent.

Add flavor

  • Once the onions and garlic are soft, stir in the paprika.
    Then pour in the chopped tomatoes and chicken stock. Bring the mixture to a boil.

Cook the pasta

  • Lower the heat to a gentle simmer.
    Add the broken pasta into the pan, stirring it occasionally to prevent sticking.
    Let it cook for around 7 minutes.

Add the seafood

  • Next, stir in the thawed seafood mix.
    Allow everything to cook for another 3 minutes, until the seafood is warmed through and the pasta is tender.

Finish and serve

  • Taste and season with salt and pepper as needed.
    Sprinkle the chopped parsley over the dish and serve it with lemon wedges on the side for a burst of freshness.
