This thermomix Bourbon Street Prawns dish is inspired from our last trip to America. We thoroughly enjoyed dining on some amazing food. We stopped into a little restaurant and Bourbon Street Shrimp was on the menu and at the time I hadn’t had any seafood on this trip – chocolate yes, lots of chocolate! – but no seafood, so I decided that I would give this dish a go.
It was seriously delicious and so light which was not what I was expecting. It was like a prawn Alfredo/carbonara with a decent kick! It was one in the book to recreate when I got home! :)
I finally found a recipe that all but matched the dish at Food.com

Made this for dinner tonight, including the Cajun spice mix, bloody delicious! Didn’t have enough prawns so a sauteed some cubed chicken thigh fillets in a pan and added then with the prawns. Served it with Caulirice as I’m keto.

Jenny says
This was really yummy another awesome prawn recipe. I did find there was heaps of sauce and I was making a total mess eating it lol! Might reduce the amount of cream next time.

Nothing wrong with being a little slurpy at the dinner table Jenny :D
Sally says
This recipe looks good, but what would your suggestion be if we wanted more sauce to coat the pasta etc. Thanks
thermofun says
Sally it does make a fair amount of sauce. But if you do want more I would just add a little more of the liquid ingredients. Enjoy! :)
