Treat your guests to a summery table loaded with the best produce the summer has to offer. Oh, and (hopefully) sunshine.
Prawn and courgette linguine with broad bean salad
by Gennaro Contaldo

This simple summery courgette and prawn pasta dish by Gennaro is a quick dinner for when you don't want to slave away in a hot kitchen. The courgettes cook down into a creamy sauce that's flavoured with garlic and anchovy. Get ahead by making the salad early.
