Barbecued Prawns with garlic butter

A great summer recipe for a light appetizer version with shrimps!
You can serve them as shown on the picture below or with e.g. rocket salad.




We need:

• 24 medium green (raw) prawns (shrimp), peeled with tails intact
• lime wedges, to serve
• 40g butter
• 2tablespoons olive oil
• 2cloves garlic, crushed
• 1 teaspoon sea salt flakes
• 3teaspoons finely chopped flat-leaf parsley leaves





To make the garlic butter, place the butter, oil, garlic, salt and parsley in a small saucepan over low heat. Cook for 1 minute or until butter is melted.

Thread 4 prawns onto a skewer and brush with garlic butter. Preheat a barbecue or char-grill to medium heat and barbecue prawns for 3 minutes each side, brushing with remaining garlic butter until golden and cooked through.

Serve with lime wedges. Serves 6.
