Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound prawns, peeled and deveined
- 4 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 whole lemon, zested and juiced
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 4 wedges lemon wedges, for serving
Instructions
In a medium bowl, combine the minced garlic, olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, chopped parsley, ground black pepper, sea salt, and red pepper flakes.
Add the peeled and deveined prawns to the garlic and lemon marinade. Toss to coat the prawns evenly with the marinade.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
Thread the prawns onto skewers, if using, to make them easier to handle on the grill.
Grill the prawns for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are pink and opaque. Be careful not to overcook them.
Remove the prawns from the grill and transfer them to a serving platter.
Garnish with additional chopped parsley and serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side.
