Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 g Large prawns, peeled and deveined
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 pieces Fresh red chillies, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Lime juice
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 2 tablespoons Fresh coriander, chopped
- 2 pieces Spring onions, sliced
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper, freshly ground
- 2 cups Cooked rice, to serve
Instructions
Start by peeling and deveining the prawns if not already done. Rinse them under cold water and pat dry with paper towels.
In a large skillet or wok, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and fry until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Add the chopped chillies to the skillet and continue to sauté for another minute until they release their aroma.
Increase the heat to high, add the prawns to the skillet, and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until they turn pink and opaque.
Reduce the heat to medium, and add the soy sauce, lime juice, and honey to the prawns. Stir well to coat the prawns evenly with the sauce.
Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Continue to cook for another 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the chopped fresh coriander and sliced spring onions.
Serve the chilli prawns immediately with cooked rice, garnishing with additional coriander if desired.
