1
Prepare the Prawns
Start by rinsing the prawns under cold water and patting them dry with paper towels. Ensure they are peeled and deveined.
2
Heat the Pan
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Allow the oil to heat for about 1-2 minutes until it shimmers.
3
Sauté the Garlic
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to let it burn.
4
Cook the Prawns
Add the prawns to the skillet in a single layer. Cook for 2-3 minutes on one side until they turn pink and opaque, then flip them over.
5
Add Butter and Seasoning
Once flipped, add the butter, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the prawns are fully cooked through and the butter has melted.
6
Garnish and Serve
Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle the chopped parsley over the prawns. Serve immediately, optionally with additional lemon wedges on the side.
