These grilled prawns are a crowd pleaser and will be whenever you serve them.

 

1 red chili, chopped finely

 1 Tbsp soy sauce

 1 Tbsp grated fresh ginger

 2 cloves garlic, crushed

 Zest and juice of 1 lemon

 1 Tbsp brown sugar

 Salt and pepper

 24 large raw prawns, tails on

 8 bamboo skewers, soaked in cold water for 30 minutes

Heat the grill to medium heat.

Combine the chili, soy sauce, ginger, garlic, lemon, and brown sugar in a small mixing bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste. For 30 minutes, marinate the prawns. Each skewer should have three prawns on it.

Cook the skewers for 3 to 4 minutes on each side over an open heat on the grill. Remove from heat and serve immediately with a squeeze of lemon or lime.
