Fire Cracker Prawns

These are the hottest prawns I’ve ever had and they need to be handled with care. We place a few of them on top of our Jambalaya as a garnish and added bonus. If you’re having a casual stand-up, help yourself get together then putting a plate of these out will certainly heat up the conversation. Yes, pun intended.

Ingredients

31/40 or larger prawns peeled and de-veined with the tail on
Jerry Lee’s Cajun Spice
1 barbeque
Cooling yogurt dip

Directions

Rinse the prawns and pat dry and place in bowl, sprinkle on the Cajun spice and coat well. How much Cajun spice you may be wondering? Use your imagination and ask yourself “how hot are we gonna go today?” After you have coated the prawns be sure to wash your hands well before you touch anything else.
Place the prawns on the barbeque at a high temperature and let them crisp up a bit on both sides. The cooking time will vary depending on the size of the prawns, the 31/40 size will only take a couple of minutes. Arrange the prawns on a serving plate around a small dipping bowl. I’d recommend a yogurt based dip like our Sea Salt Lime Yogurt. Another suggestion is to place sliced cold cucumbers on the same plate; this might help a few people out.
