Barbecued garlic and basil prawns

It is summer and for us here in Australia that means one very exciting thing: seafood is delightful right now. One of our resident community contributors, Anne Taylor, shares this super simple summer-perfect dish for barbecuing one of our national foods – prawns.

Ingredients:

Method:

1. Mix all of the ingredients in a bowl and then add prawns – let sit for at least about 30 minutes. Don’t let the mixture sit for too long otherwise the lemon juice will cook the prawns. 

2. Throw the prawns on the BBQ to cook.

3. Serve with sourdough bread.

TIP: The prawns must be fresh – don’t buy prawns that have been pre-frozen.
