Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
⅓ pound prawns, peeled and deveined
1 tablespoon fish sauce
⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper
3 ¼ (14.5 ounce) cans chicken broth

Steps:

  • Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Saute onion and garlic until onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Add prawns; cook and stir until starting to turn color, about 2 minutes. Add fish sauce and pepper; cover and cook until slightly reduced, about 2 minutes.
