Prepare the Prawns
Rinse the spot prawns under cold water to clean them. Pat them dry with paper towels.
Marinate the Prawns
Add the cleaned prawns to the marinade and toss to coat. Let them marinate for about 15 minutes.

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated prawns in a single layer and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until they turn pink and opaque.
Garnish and Serve
Remove from heat, sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley, and serve immediately with lemon wedges.
