Kylie's BBQ Prawns

By Kylie Macey, MediaHub General Manager

Ingredients

  • 1kg raw tiger prawns, peeled and de-veined, heads and tails intact 
    *optional to preference

  • 1 long red chilli, finely chopped *optional 

  • 2 tbsp finely chopped coriander

  • 1 garlic clove, finely grated

  • 2 tsp fish sauce

  • 1/4 tsp paprika

  • Juice of 1 lime 

  • 1 tsp sea salt

  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil, plus extra for brushing

Method

  1. Mix marinade ingredients in a bowl. Transfer half the marinade to a small serving bowl – you’ll use this at the end to dress the cooked prawns. Set aside.

  2. Place the prawns on a large tray. With the remaining half of the marinade, drizzle it over the prawns. Pop the tray back into the fridge and leave to marinate until you’re ready to BBQ.

  3. Heat a BBQ grill plate on high and brush with oil. Grill the prawns 2-3 minutes each side or until cooked through. Transfer to a serving platter and drizzle over the reserved marinade.
