Grilled Prawns with Pepper Citrus Marinade
8-12 jumbo prawns peeled and deveined (this recipe is very good with lobster tails also)
1 lime
1 lemon
2 oranges
several sprigs of cilantro, stems removed and chopped coarsely
a few chive leaves, snipped
2 shallots, minced
salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tbsp. light olive oil
Squeeze the lemon, lime and oranges into a bowl, add the chopped cilantro, chives, salt, pepper, shallots and olive oil mixing well. Add the shrimp and marinate for about 1 hour stirring occasionally. Heat a hot grill or grill pan to medium hot and grill the prawns until they curl up and turn opaque throughout, about 2 minutes per side. Serve immediately or at room temperature.
This recipe would be great for a quick get together with friends. Start with salsa and tortilla chips, and serve the prawns with crusty bread, grilled vegetables and a crisp white wine. Add a light dessert of your favorite ice cream.
