Ingredients

How to make grilled lemon-garlic prawns on the barbecue?

Light the barbecue and let the coals burn down until they have a nice grey ash layer. This takes about 20 to 25 minutes.
Meanwhile make the marinade: mix olive oil, crushed garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice, chili flakes, salt and pepper in a bowl.
Add the peeled prawns to the marinade and toss well. Let them marinate for 15 minutes while the barbecue comes up to temperature.
Thread the prawns onto metal or soaked wooden skewers, two to three per skewer.
Grill the prawn skewers over high heat, about 2 minutes per side, until they’re nicely pink and lightly golden. Don’t cook too long—prawns cook quickly.
Remove the skewers from the barbecue and immediately sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley. Serve with lemon wedges and a fresh yogurt-garlic dip or crusty French bread.

Cooking mode Prevents your screen from going to sleep

This recipe works best with large, raw prawns because they have enough structure to survive a turn on the grill without falling apart. Make sure your barbecue is really hot before you start. Good heat gives those beautiful grill marks and keeps the prawns juicy inside.

Make it a proper summer spread: place a platter of these prawn skewers on the table, add some fresh bread and let everyone help themselves. Sharing together, enjoying together. That’s exactly what a good barbecue evening should feel like.
