Preparation Steps

1

Prepare the Prawns

Clean the red prawns by removing the shell and deveining them. Pat dry with a paper towel and season with salt and pepper.

2

Coat the Prawns

Set up a breading station with three bowls: one with flour, one with a whisked egg, and one with breadcrumbs. Dredge each prawn in flour, dip in egg, and then coat with breadcrumbs.

3

Fry the Prawns

In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, fry the coated prawns in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

4

Prepare the Sauce

In a small bowl, mix the sardine sauce with chopped dried marinated tomatoes and capers. Stir well to combine.

5

Serve

On a plate, arrange the crispy prawns and drizzle with the sardine sauce mixture. Serve alongside fresh escarole leaves.
