Yabby (Crawfish), Tomato And Chili Pasta Sauce - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    20 g parmesan cheese, finely grated (I use my microplane)
    2 tablespoons finely chopped parsley
    zest of a small lemon
    3 teaspoons olive oil
    4 tablespoons finely diced red onions
    2 garlic cloves, crushed
    1 teaspoon chili flakes (to taste)
    200 ml white wine
    1 (400 g) can tomatoes, chopped
    1 teaspoon chicken stock powder (to taste)
    1 tablespoon capers
    300 g crawfish meat (yabby)
Preparation
    Combine the parmesan, parsley and lemon zest in a small bowl and set aside.
    Heat the oil in a pan and cook the onion until softened, add the garlic and cook 30 seconds more, then add in the chilli flakes and white wine. Cook to reduce a little.
    Add the tomatoes and their juice and the chciken stock powder. Cook until reduced and thickened (mine took about 15 minutes over a medium-low heat).
    While this is happening, cook some pasta to serve the sauce over. We had penne, I would have preferred angel hair though!
    When the sauce is thickened to your liking, add in the capers and yabby meat and cook a further 2 or 3 minutes to heat the yabbies through.
    Serve over pasta with the parmesan, parsley zest mix sprinkled over the top.
