How to Make
-
Step 1: To make dressing, whisk all ingredients in a small jug and set aside.
-
Step 2: Combine seasoning, salt and pepper in a medium bowl and then add prawns and toss to coat and then insert a skewer into each prawn, starting at the tail through to the top.
-
Step 3: Heat a barbecue grill plate over a high heat until hot and then reduce to medium heat and add prawns and cook for about 2 to 3 minutes on each side, or until cooked.
-
Step 4: Transfer to a serving platter and drizzle over dressing and sprinkle with green spring onion and serve with lime wedges.

Step 5: TIP: Skewers are best soaked in warm water for 10 minutes, or soak them overnight, to help prevent them from burning during cooking and cook prawns just before serving.
