Ingredients

• 500 grams Prawns (large, deveined, with or without shell)
• 4 pieces Garlic cloves (minced)
• 2 pieces Red chili (finely chopped)
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 tablespoon Soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon Honey
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper (freshly ground)
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Clean and devein the prawns if not done already. Rinse them under cold water and pat dry with paper towels.

Step 2

In a small bowl, prepare the sauce by mixing soy sauce, honey, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Set aside.

Step 3

Heat olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium heat.

Step 4

Once the oil is hot, add the minced garlic and chopped red chili. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.

Step 5

Increase the heat to medium-high and add the prawns to the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes on one side until they turn pink, then flip and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes on the other side.

Step 6

Pour the prepared sauce over the prawns, stirring well to coat them evenly. Cook for 1-2 more minutes, allowing the sauce to slightly thicken.

Step 7

Remove the skillet from heat and transfer the prawns to a serving dish.

Step 8

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve immediately. Enjoy your Garlic Chili Prawns as-is or with steamed rice or crusty bread.
