Serves: 6
Prep time: 10 mins
Cook time: 10 mins
Rest time:  10 mins
Skill level: 1/3
Cost: 2/3



Ingredients:

  • 12 wooden or bamboo skewers
  • 36 large raw prawns (I used King, but any large variety will do)
  • 1/2 cup sweet chilli sauce
  • 2 limes, juiced
  • 4 tablespoons light soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil


Directions:

1. Optional: Soak the skewers in cold water for at least an hour to prevent them burning and disintergrating.
2. Thread 3 prawns on to each skewer making sure you pierce the body of each in two places to firmly secure.
3. In a small bowl whisk together the sweet chilli sauce, lime juice, soy sauce and sesame oil.
4. Brush the mixture over all the skewers on both sides evenly. Don’t let them sit too long after applying the marinade or the lime juice will start to ‘cook’ the prawns. 10 mins will do.
5. BBQ or grill briefly, turning once. As soon as the prawns go from green to pink on both sides, remove them from the heat. Take care not to overcook or they will be dry and rubbery. Serve immediately with leftover marinade for dipping.
