Ingredients

  • 16 giant raw prawns, shelled with the tail section left intact
  • 1 lime, cut into 8 wedges
  • 4 tbsp. sweet chili sauce (can be found in the aisle that holds the Asian seasonings and foods)

Directions

1

Place eight bamboo skewers in cold water and leave to soak for at least 10 minutes, then preheat the broiler to high. You can also stoke up a hot grill.

2

Thread a prawn onto each skewer, then a lime wedge, then another prawn. Brush the sweet chili sauce over the prawns and lime wedges.

3

Arrange the skewers on a baking sheet and broil for about 2 minutes, turning them once, until cooked through. Serve immediately with more chili sauce for dipping.
