How to Make Barbecue Ginger Prawns Shrimp
- Shell and devein 1 pound of prawns, leaving the tails intact.
- In a food processor, combine 1/4 cup grated fresh ginger, 4 cloves minced garlic, 2-3 red chillies finely chopped (adjust to your spice preference), 1/4 cup soy sauce, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 1 tablespoon fish sauce, 1 tablespoon lime juice, and 1 teaspoon sesame oil. Blend until smooth.
- Place the prawns in a bowl, pour the marinade over them, ensuring they are evenly coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1-2 hours, or preferably longer for maximum flavour.
- Remove prawns from the marinade, reserving the extra marinade.
- Preheat your BBQ to medium-high heat. Thread prawns onto skewers (optional). Place prawns on the hot BBQ grill, close the lid, and cook for 8-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until they turn pink and opaque. Baste with reserved marinade during the last few minutes of cooking.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
