How to Make Broiled Lemon And Garlic Tiger Prawns
- Preheat your oven's broiler to high.
- Using a sharp knife, carefully remove the tails from the prawns. Butterfly them by making a shallow cut along the back of each prawn, being careful not to cut all the way through.
- Arrange the butterflied prawns in a single layer on a broiler pan.
- In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the minced garlic and lemon juice. Cook for 1-2 minutes, or until fragrant, stirring occasionally.
- Pour 1/4 of the garlic-lemon butter mixture into a small bowl. Brush this mixture evenly over the prawns.
- Sprinkle the prawns generously with Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper.
- Place the broiler pan on the top rack of your preheated oven. Broil for 4-5 minutes, or until the prawns are pink and opaque, and the cheese is melted and lightly browned. Watch closely to prevent burning.
- Remove from oven and garnish with fresh parsley, if desired. Serve immediately with the remaining garlic-lemon butter mixture for dipping.
