Peri-Peri Prawn Skewers


New year new resolutions. That's what I mentioned in the white bread loaf post. The new year also reflect a change in my career. I'm reassigned to handle new projects in new plant. My current company expanded and took up another 2 manufacturing plants that's connected to each other in different industrial area. I've started working in that 2 connected buildings since 4th of Jan. I know it's going to be a challenging year for the whole team. It's challenging to me in terms of new responsibilities, new environment, new boss, new subordinates, new counterparts,....etc. I wish it's a good start. Ok, let's back to the food.

Here's another simple recipe by using Nando's Hot Peri-Peri sauce. It's a recipe that suits my current hectic working life. It requires short preparation time, and the cooking is done by oven. Many of you will like it, I bet. You can play around with the marinades to suit your own taste buds. Have fun!

Peri-Peri Prawn Skewers

Ingredients:
14 jumbo prawns, shelled with head and tail intact and vein removed

Marinades:
juice of 1 calamansi
2 tbsp of Nando's Hot Peri-Peri sauce
1 stalk of spring onion, chopped
1 pinch of salt

Steps:
1. Marinate the prawns for 5 minutes.
2. Preheat oven at 180 deg C.
3. Put each prawn on a skewer. Arrange the skewer on baking pan.
4. Oven-bake the prawns for 15 minutes under 180 deg C.

    Good start to the new year ;) happy challenges ahead!! congratulations!

    I love how rustic these prawns look-esp bbq with its shell on it will have a stronger "prawn" taste. and who can go against peri peri sauce? extra hot option I hope? *wink*
