5-MINUTE LOW-FAT GARLIC PRAWNS

I came up with this as a quick and easy lunch today. It was tasty, and used no added fats or oils. I used my wok as it is the best non-stick surface I have. Feel free to use any good non-stick pan you have. You could use this on it's own, in a salad, tossed through pasta, or as a topping for grilled steak.

Time 5m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

500 g prawns, shelled with tails left on
1/2 cup dry white wine
3 -4 garlic cloves, crushed

Steps:

  • Combine all ingredients in a bowl. You can leave them to sit for a while if you want to, or if pressed for time, the flavours still work just as well if you cook it straight away.
  • Heat wok (or other good non-stick pan) to medium-high heat.
  • Add prawns, wine, and garlic, and stir-fry 4-5 minutes, or until prawns are just cooked through. The tails will be bright pink, and the prawn meat will no longer be translucent.
  • Remove from wok with a slotted spoon and serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Use large prawns: They cook more evenly and have a better texture.
  • Devein the prawns: This removes the digestive tract and makes them more appealing to eat.
  • Use a large skillet: This will help to prevent the prawns from overcrowding and steaming instead of sautéing.
  • Cook the prawns in a single layer: This will help them to cook evenly.
  • Don't overcook the prawns: They should be cooked just until they turn pink and opaque. Overcooked prawns are tough and rubbery.
  • Use fresh garlic: It has a more intense flavor than dried garlic.
  • Don't burn the garlic: It will make the prawns bitter.
  • Use a good quality white wine: It will add flavor to the prawns.
  • Add some lemon juice: It will brighten up the flavor of the prawns.
  • Serve the prawns immediately: They are best when they are hot and fresh.

Conclusion:

This 5-minute low-fat garlic prawns recipe is a quick and easy way to make a delicious and healthy meal. The prawns are cooked in a flavorful sauce made with garlic, white wine, and lemon juice. They are perfect for a weeknight dinner or a casual lunch. Serve them with rice, pasta, or your favorite vegetables.
