Method

Preparing the Prawns

  1. 1

    Wrap the Prawns

    Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Wrap each prawn with a slice of smoked bacon and secure with a toothpick. Season with salt and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Cook the Prawns

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the bacon-wrapped prawns and cook until the bacon is crispy and the prawns are cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side.

Making the Sriracha Lime Aioli

  1. 3

    Combine the Ingredients

    In a bowl, mix mayonnaise, sriracha sauce, lime juice, minced garlic, and salt. Adjust seasoning to taste.

Preparing the Pineapple Salsa

  1. 4

    Mix the Salsa

    In a bowl, combine diced pineapple, chopped red onion, cilantro, lime juice, and salt. Stir well to combine and set aside.

Making the Balsamic Reduction

  1. 5

    Cook the Balsamic Reduction

    In a small saucepan, combine balsamic vinegar and honey. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook until the mixture is reduced by half and thickened, about 10-15 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.

Serving

  1. 6

    Plate the Dish

    Arrange the bacon-wrapped prawns on a serving platter. Serve with sriracha lime aioli, pineapple salsa, and drizzle with balsamic reduction.
