Slice the chorizo into bite-sized pieces. Add to a frying pan over a medium heat and cook until crispy.
Once crispy, add a pinch of dried chilli flakes and the raw prawns. Cook the prawns until they are pink, then add a chopped clove garlic. Cook for a further , and then pour in the passata.
Get the linguine on (follow the instructions on the packet).
Meanwhile, bubble the sauce down until it is nice and thick. Then throw in a handful of chopped basil (keep some whole leaves to garnish) and season well with salt and pepper.
Drain your pasta and pour it into the sauce. Mix everything together and serve, with a drizzle of olive oil and the basil leaves scattered on top.
