Barbequed Garlic & Herb Prawns

Posted on May 6, 2014 Updated on September 17, 2014

Here is another simple and quick BBQ recipe for some yummy prawns this time.

I have been making these for years and they always go quick at the table.

I had approximately 100 peeled and deveined prawns

For the Marinade:

• 2 Tbsp Melted Butter (i used unsalted)
• 2 Minced Garlic Cloves
• 3 Tbsp Olive Oil
• Juice from 1/2 a Lemon
• 5 Sprigs Fresh Thyme
• Handful minced Italian Parsley
• 1 Tsp Cayenne Pepper
• 1 Tsp Fresh Cracked Pepper
• 2 Tsp Garlic Powder

How To:

1. If you are using wood skewers soak them in some water for about 5-10 minutes.
2. Rinse your prawns keeping the tails on.
3. Skewer your prawns onto the skewers.
4. Mix the above in a bowl. Using a brush coat both sides of the prawns in the marinade. I let mine sit for 20 mins.
5. Start up the BBQ and once it is hot place your skewers on.
6. These guys cook fast so don’t leave them unattended. You will need about 1 – 2 minutes per side.
7. Serve immediately.
