Garlic Chicken and Shrimp

Garlic Chicken and Shrimp shouldn’t work as a flavor combination, but I am here to tell you that it does! In fact, it’s amazing – juicy shrimp, tender chicken and pungent garlic combine to make a quick and delicious midweek meal.

Start by pounding the chicken breasts to flatten them. Then peel and devein the prawns which is a messy job, but not as difficult as it sounds. Simply peel off the shell and slide a small sharp knife down the back of each shrimp. Cook the chicken and shrimp in melted butter and add basil, parsley and seasoning. Yum!
