Recipe – Chilli Lime Glazed Prawns
Ingredients
| 4 large bamboo skewers, soaked in water for 1 hour |
| 16 large peeled prawns, deveined, tails left on |
| 1/2 tbsp peanut oil |
| 2 garlic cloves, crushed |
| 1 tsp ginger, grated |
| 1 lime, zest and juice |
| 3/4 cup sweet chilli sauce |
| 1/2 tsp salt |
| Fresh chives and sesame seeds for garnish |
Directions
Step 1 – Thread the prawns onto the skewers. In a bowl, whisk together the peanut oil, garlic, ginger, lime zest and juice, sweet chilli sauce and salt. Brush the chilli sauce mixture over the prawns and allow to marinate for 1 hour.
Step 2 – Prepare the BBQ grill for direct cooking over high medium – heat (230° to 290°C), ensuring the grills are clean. If you are using a charcoal grill, keep a small part of the charcoal grate clear of briquettes or charcoal as a safety zone of indirect heat.
Step 3 – Remove the prawns from the marinade, reserving the marinade. Cook the prawns on the grill, brushing the marinade over the prawns regularly, until the prawns are cooked through, 1 – 2 minutes each side.
Step 4 – Sprinkle the skewers with chopped chives and sesame seeds and serve immediately.
