Instructions
Marinate
- Clean and devein prawns or shrimps. Drain the prawn well and pat them dry.Pro tip - I leave the tails on because they look aesthetic but you can take them off as well.
- Place all marinade ingredients in a bowl and combine well. Add prawns/shrimp to the marinade and coat them well.
- Leave the prawns to marinate for an hour on the counter or up to 12 hours in the fridge.Pro tip - You can also thread the prawns on a skewer and cook them on the BBQ.
- Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the marinated prawns along with the marinade.
- Cook on medium heat, stirring so it does not stick to the pan. Continue to cook stirring until prawns change color to light pink.
- Prawns cook fairly quick 8 to 10 minutes. When the prawns are cooked, add the butter and sprinkle with fresh coriander.
- Enjoy!
