1-Diving into this recipe feels like a breeze once you follow these simple steps, and you’ll have tasty prawns ready in no time. Start by brushing your BBQ grill with oil and preheating it on high until it’s really hot this helps get that crispy finish we all love. If your shrimp are on the smaller side, thread them on two skewers per row to keep them from slipping through the grates.

2-First, melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium-high heat, then add the garlic and salt, stirring until the garlic turns lightly golden. Quickly pull it off the heat and mix in the lemon juice for that zesty kick. Next, pat the shrimp dry to ensure they get nice and crispy, then toss them in a bowl with garlic powder, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, lemon juice (if you’re grilling), olive oil, salt, and pepper do this just before cooking to keep them juicy.

3-Clean and prepare the prawns by removing shells while leaving tails for a nice look.

4-Mix up the marinade with olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.

5-Coat the prawns evenly in the marinade and let them sit for about 10 minutes to soak up the flavors.

6-Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, around 400°F.

7-Place the prawns on the grill and cook for 2 minutes per side until they turn golden and crusty.

8-For any swaps, like using mushrooms for a vegan twist, adjust the cooking time as needed.

9-Once done, drizzle with the lemon garlic butter sauce, sprinkle on some parsley, and serve right away with lemon and crusty bread to soak up the extra sauce.
