Honey Chilli Prawn Skewers

December 30

Prawns can be a little daunting if you haven’t cooked them before but to be honest they literally take minutes under the grill and this really simple recipe transforms them into the perfect sweet and spicy party food! They can be tricky if you can’t get your hands on the prawns prepared, but don’t be put off if you can’t. Simply spend a few minutes removing the heads and peeling the outer shells, and they are ready to rock.
