How to Make Barbecued Prawns Shrimp With Mustard Dipping Sauce

  1. **Make the Mustard Dipping Sauce:** In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup mayonnaise, 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 1 teaspoon honey, and a pinch of salt and pepper. If desired, stir in 2 tablespoons plain yogurt or sour cream and reduce lemon juice to 1/2 tablespoon.
  2. **Marinate the Shrimp:** In a large bowl, combine 1 pound shrimp (peeled and deveined), 1 tablespoon ground coriander, 1 teaspoon ground cumin, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Toss gently to coat.
  3. **Preheat & Thread:** Preheat your grill or large skillet to medium-high heat. Thread the marinated shrimp onto skewers (metal or soaked wooden skewers).
  4. **Grill/Cook the Shrimp:** Grill the shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they turn pink and opaque. If using a skillet, cook for 2-3 minutes per side, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
  5. **Serve:** Serve the grilled shrimp immediately with the mustard dipping sauce. Enjoy warm or chilled!
