Piri Piri Prawns Recipes

Steps:

• Mix the oil with the garlic, chilli, salt and paprika, then toss in the prawns. Marinate the prawns in the fridge for up to 1 day.
• TO BARBECUE: Cook the prawns singly or thread 3 onto skewers to make portions. Barbecue for just a few mins each side until they turn from grey to pink. Serve with the mint relish (just tiny pots per portion), warm finger bowls with lime slices, napkins, and a bowl for the shells.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 500 degrees F and arrange rack in upper third.
• Place chiles on a baking sheet and roast until blackened and soft, about 10 to 15 minutes. Trim chiles and remove seeds.
• Combine chiles, garlic, paprika, lime juice, and vinegar in a blender and blend until smooth and combined, about 1 minute. Add olive oil and blend until thoroughly incorporated and marinade thickens slightly.
• Combine marinade and shrimp in a medium nonreactive bowl and toss to coat. Let marinate 20 minutes to 24 hours in the refrigerator.
• Heat a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. When heated, add half the shrimp and cook until white with a few brown spots, about 1 to 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a serving plate and season with salt. Repeat to cook off all shrimp.
• Toss shrimp with cilantro and serve with lime wedges over rice.

Steps:

• Whisk together coconut milk, garlic, chiles, zest, and paprika. Add shrimp and marinate overnight, refrigerated. Soak the wooden skewers in water overnight. Heat grill or grill pan. Drain shrimp and season shrimp with salt and pepper, toss in vegetable oil and skewer. Grill 1 1/2 minutes on both sides or until shrimp are opaque. Serve with the Mango Dipping Sauce.
• Bring vinegar and sugar to boil and then lower heat to medium and cook until syrupy consistency. When cooled, add to blender with mango puree and lime juice. Stir in chopped peppers.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 3. Mix the soured cream with 1 tbsp lemon juice, the mint and seasoning, cover and put in the fridge. Toss the prawns in 2 tsp oil, 1 tbsp lemon juice, the garlic, chilli, paprika and seasoning. Cover and put to one side. Wrap the breads in foil and put in the oven to warm.
• Heat a griddle pan on a medium- high heat. Toss the peppers in the remaining 2 tsp oil, season and cook on the griddle for 5-10 mins until charred and softened (you may need to do this in two batches). Transfer the peppers to an ovenproof dish, cover with foil and put in the oven to keep warm. Add the prawns to the griddle pan and cook for 2-3 mins each side until pink, cooked through and lightly charred. Serve with the warm wraps, lettuce, peppers and soured cream.

Steps:

• Toss shrimp and 1/2 cup piri piri in a large bowl until well combined. Let marinate 20 minutes in refrigerator.
• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add shrimp and cook until opaque throughout, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer shrimp to a plate, sprinkle with salt, and squeeze lime over shrimp.
• Spread 1/2 teaspoon remaining piri piri sauce on each lettuce leaf. Top with a shrimp and fold over bottom and sides to form a wrap. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Put the sweet potato on a baking tray, rub all over with a little of the oil and season with salt. Bake for 45 mins until really soft.
• Meanwhile, heat the remaining oil in a frying pan. Add the garlic and pepper and cook for 2 mins, making sure the garlic doesn't burn. Add the chilli flakes, half the paprika, the vinegar, ketchup, 1 tbsp water and prawns to the pan, then bubble for 2 mins until the prawns are cooked through. Stir through the parsley, saving a little to sprinkle over at the end.
• Mix the remaining paprika into the mayonnaise. Once the potato is cooked, split it down the centre, pile in the prawn mixture and dollop the paprika mayo on top. Scatter over the remaining parsley and serve.
