Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Start by ensuring the prawns are peeled and deveined. Rinse them under cold water and pat dry with a paper towel. Mince the garlic and chop the parsley. Zest and juice the lemon, keeping them separate.

Cooking

  1. 2

    Sauté the Garlic

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to let it burn.

  2. 3

    Cook the Prawns

    Add the prawns to the skillet. Season with salt, black pepper, and red chili flakes. Cook for 2-3 minutes on one side until they turn pink, then flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes on the other side until fully cooked.

  3. 4

    Add Lemon

    Once the prawns are cooked, pour in the lemon juice and add the lemon zest. Stir well to combine and cook for an additional minute to heat through.

  4. 5

    Finish with Parsley

    Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the chopped parsley. Adjust seasoning if necessary.
