Grilled Lemon Garlic BC Spot Prawn Skewers
Ingredients:
- 1-pound BC Spot Prawn Tails
- 4 Garlic cloves - minced
- 1 bunch Chives - chopped fine
- 1 Tsp Sea Salt
- 4 Tbsp Butter - melted
- Zest and juice of 1 Lemon
- 8 presoaked Wooden Skewers (soaking the skewers prevents
them from burning on the grill)
Directions:
- Mix together all ingredients except BC Spot Prawn tails in a small bowl.
- Pour most of the mixture into a freezer bag with a zip closure - set aside about 1 Tsp of this marinade for later.
- Add the Spot Prawn tails to the bag with the lemon garlic marinade, and gently toss to coat.
- Squeeze as much air out of the bag as you can and close the zipper.
- Allow the Prawns to marinate in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes.
- Remove the Prawns from the marinade and then arrange them on the skewers, piercing both the meat and the end tail section. 3-4 Prawns per skewer.
- On a preheated grill, place each skewer so that the tails are lying on their sides.
- Cook for about 1-2 minutes on this side, and while they are cooking, brush them with the leftover marinade.
- Turn the Prawns over and cook for another 1-2 minutes.
- Remove Prawns from the grill and serve on a platter with dishes of your favourite dipping sauces. We suggest garlic butter, chili mayo, or tartar sauce.
