Grilled Prawns Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium high and oil the grates. Devein the shrimp: Cut through the shell along the back of the shrimp with kitchen shears to expose the vein. Use the edge of the shears or the tip of a paring knife to remove the vein, leaving the shell intact.
• Brush the shrimp with olive oil. Grill until the shells are pink and lightly charred, 2 to 3 minutes per side (any exposed meat should be opaque). Remove the shrimp to a platter and sprinkle with sea salt. Serve with lemon wedges.

Steps:

• Combine the first 3 ingredients. Add the prawns and marinate for about 35 to 40 minutes.
• Grill prawns until just pink. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Mix the onion and garlic with peanut oil.
• Add the prawns and toss to coat.
• Leave to marinate for at least three hours or overnight.
• Grill, barbecue or broil the prawns for about 5 minutes, turning once.
• Whisk together the remaining ingredients to make the sauce and pour it into a small sauce bowl, placed at the center of the platter of prawns.

Steps:

• In a large bowl stir together the oil, the herbs, the zest, the salt, and the pepper, add the prawns, and toss them to coat them well.
• Let the prawns marinate, covered and chilled, for at least 1 hour or overnight. Stir in the lemon juice, let the mixture stand at room temperature for 30 minutes, and drain the prawns in a fine sieve.
• Grill the herb-coated prawns on a rack set about 4 inches over glowing coals for 3 minutes on each side, or until they are cooked through. (Alternatively, the prawns may be broiled on the rack of a broiler pan under a preheated broiler about 4 inches from the heat for 4 minutes on each side.) Divide the prawns among 8 plates and serve them with the lemon wedges.

Steps:

• Wash and devein prawns but retain the shell. Retaining the shell makes it more tasty. Dry prawns well.
• Melt butter and add the garlic to to it; mix well.
• Add rest of the ingredients to butter mixture except prawns.
• Marinate the prawns in HALF of this marinade for several hours. 2-4hrs is sufficient. (I sometimes add all the sauce if I want it saucy).
• Place prawns in oven tray and grill till done on 180°C tossing them at intervals.
• Heat the rest of the marinade until thickens into a sauce pour some of the sauce over the grilling prawns and use the rest as a dipping sauce for prawns. Serve hot. Serve with savoury rice and a salad. You can also substitute prawns with shrimp.
