Ingredients
- 2 - 3 lbs. prawns or large shrimp
- 1 batch piripiri sauce
Directions
1
Clean shellfish. Make piripiri sauce. Put prawns or shrimp in a bowl and pour sauce over them, stirring to coat each piece well. Set aside to marinate (soak) for several hours.
2
Grilling over charcoal fire is the preferred cooking method; broiling is an alternative. To broil, place whole prawns or shrimp on a rack over a pan that can catch drips. Put the rack about 3 inches from your broiler, and sear for 3 - 4 minutes on each side. You can also cook them by frying quickly in a skillet of hot butter until they become golden pink. (To avoid scorching and smoking, use clrified butter.)
3
Meanwhile, heat the marinade in which the prawns or shrimp were soaked. Pass at the table as sauce.
