Grilled Prawns with Garlic and Parsley Butter
Ingredients:
12 large prawns (or jumbo shrimp), cleaned (keep the heads and shells on for extra flavor)
100 g of softened butter
4 garlic cloves, finely chopped
A small bunch of fresh parsley, chopped
Juice of half a lemon
Salt and pepper to taste
A drizzle of olive oil
Lemon slices for serving
Instructions:
Preparing the prawns:
If your prawns aren’t cleaned yet, gently remove the dark vein along the back while keeping the heads and shells on. These parts will add more flavor while cooking.
Making the garlic and parsley butter:
In a bowl, mix the softened butter with the chopped garlic, parsley, lemon juice, a pinch of salt, and a little pepper. This will be the key to the rich flavor of your prawns.
Get the grill ready:
If using a barbecue, make sure it’s properly heated to medium-high. You can also use a grill pan on the stove over medium-high heat. Lightly brush the grill or pan with olive oil to prevent sticking.
Grilling the prawns:
Generously brush each prawn with the garlic and parsley butter mixture.
Place them on the hot grill and cook for about 3 to 4 minutes on each side. They should be nicely golden, slightly crispy on the edges, but still juicy inside.
Plating and serving:
Once grilled, transfer the prawns to a serving dish. Pour a little of the remaining melted garlic butter over them for extra flavor. Serve with lemon wedges to add a touch of acidity.
Your grilled prawns with garlic and parsley butter are ready. Simple, quick, and full of flavor. You can serve them with rice, a salad, or grilled vegetables for the perfect summer meal.
Feel free to adjust the amount of garlic and parsley to suit your taste, and most importantly, enjoy preparing this delicious dish.
