Grilled Prawns and Accompaniments

Method

Preparation and Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Marinate the Prawns

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, lime juice, salt, and black pepper. Add the prawns and toss to coat. Let marinate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If using skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning.

  3. 3

    Grill the Prawns

    Thread the marinated prawns onto skewers (if using). Grill the prawns for about 2-3 minutes on each side, until they are pink and opaque.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Dish

    On a serving platter, arrange the grilled prawns, cubed watermelon, and sprinkle with chopped Thai herbs, sliced chili, crushed peanuts, and toasted coconut.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the grilled prawns with Nuoc Cham on the side for dipping.
