Photo: Broiled Prawns Recipe
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt and pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 1/4 cup fresh orange juice
- 1 teaspoon fresh chopped garlic
- 1 pound wild Prawns (16 to 20 or 21 to 25 count works best), peeled and deveined
- Wood or metal skewers
Directions
Mix all the ingredients together (except prawns) in a large bowl. Add the prawns and
cover. Allow to marinate about 1/2 hour in the refrigerator.
Preheat grill to high and put about 5 to 6 prawns on each skewer. Place the prawn skewers on the grill (using metal tongs works well for this). Let cook about 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Carefully remove the prawns from the skewers and serve as an appetizer or with side dishes for an entree.

I made this dish at a time when I could use my own hand squeezed orange juice, and they were a hit!

This is a clasic recipe that lets you taste the meat, rather than the marinade/sauce. It really enhanced the sweetness of the prawns and was light yet satisfying. Great for one of those hot summer days when you don't really feel like being in the kitchen all day. I served this over salad for a light, late night dinner.
