Steps
-
Step 1:
Peel the prawns, leaving the tails intact.
-
Step 2:
Using a cocktail stick, remove the digestive tracts.
-
Step 3:
Alternatively, if using a frying pan rather than a terracotta pot, cook the prawns in their shells.
-
Step 4:
Season the prawns with a little sea salt.
-
Step 5:
Put the garlic, olive oil, and cayenne peppers in a flameproof terracotta pot or frying pan and set over high heat.
-
Step 6:
When the garlic starts to turn golden, add the prawns and cook for 1–2 minutes on each side, until just pink.
1–2 min -
Step 7:
Sprinkle over the chopped parsley and freshly cracked black pepper, then serve immediately.
-
Step 8:
If using a terracotta pot, take it straight to the table, taking care because the oil and terracotta will remain hot for several minutes.
