Ingredients

200g of our Raw Peeled Prawns
2 tbsp of olive oil
1.5 tbsp of honey
1 clove of garlic
1 red chilli
1tbsp of Mirin (Sweet Japanese rice wine)
15g of chopped parsley
1.5 courgette
83g asparagus tips

Assembling and plating

1. Prepare the prawns by skewering 3 or 4 onto wooden skewers.

Tip: soak the wooden skewers in water for 20 mins to avoid burning prior to use.

2. Mix in a bowl: a tablespoon of olive oil with 1.5 tbsp honey, the minced clove of garlic, the chopped chilli, the 1 tbsp mirin (rice wine) and chopped parsley. Leave aside until further use as this is the sauce for the prawns.

3. Heat the griddle, or ready the BBQ, then place the skewers on it to cook. Then wash the sauce over it using a basting brush on both sides and leave to cook.

Remember: the prawn has to fully turn into bright orange and red, as well as look firmer in texture. The sauce should also become a thick and sticky glaze.

4. Whilst the prawns are cooking, slice the courgette into ribbons using a peeler and place it in a hot pan with 1 tbsp of olive oil to cook.

5. Once the vegetables are hot and cooked, place them onto a plate.

6. Check the prawns, and once cooked, place on top of the hot vegetables.

7. Serve and enjoy your BBQ Honey-Glazed Skewered Prawns

Final dish, BBQ Honey-Glazed Skewered Prawns, skewers cooked on plate of hot vegetables. Ready to eat.
