Method

  • step 1

    Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan. Season the prawns and set aside. Cook the garlic over medium-low heat until it just starts to colour. Increase heat to high and add the prawns and chilli. Stir quickly and keep turning prawns in the pan.

  • step 2

    After 1 min, pour in the lemon juice. Toss until prawns are opaque – about 1 min more. Sprinkle over lemon zest and parsley and serve with crusty bread.

Far too much lemon and parsley. Just a squeeze of juice and light scattering of parsley is fine. Otherwise, delicious and v easy!

Hi, thanks for your question. This recipe uses 300g peeled (shell-off) raw prawns. We hope this helps. Best wishes, BBC Good Food Team.
