Paper bag prawns with sherry, chilli & garlic image

Make cooking prawns over coals easier by dropping them into a parcel with a dash of sherry, chilli and garlic. Serve with crusty bread

Provided by Tom Kerridge

Categories     Supper

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 10

100g butter
4 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
5 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1 red chilli, sliced
1 tsp sweet smoked paprika
80ml dry sherry
600g extra-large raw tiger prawns, peeled and deveined
1 lemon, halved
1 handful of flat-leaf parsley, leaves picked and chopped
crusty bread, to serve

Steps:

  • Light the barbecue. Meanwhile, put the butter, olive oil, garlic, chilli, paprika and sherry in a small pan set over a high heat. Season well and bubble for 2 mins.
  • Put a square 45cm sheet of foil shiny-side down on a work surface. Lay an equal-sized sheet of baking parchment on top, then fold the foil and parchment in half together, with the foil on the outer side. Seal at the shorter sides by folding the edges over a few times and pressing them firmly. Spoon the prawns into the parcel through the open top and pour in the melted butter mixture. Fold the parcel edges together along the open top to seal it fully.
  • When the coals of the barbecue are ashen, place the parcel directly on the grill and cook for 15 mins, carefully turning it once or twice. The prawns will be nearly ready when the parcel begins to puff up with steam. Remove the parcel from the barbecue, open it up carefully and tip the prawns and buttery juices into a serving bowl. Squeeze over one of the lemon halves and sprinkle with the parsley. Cut the remaining lemon half into wedges. Serve the prawns with the lemon wedges for squeezing over and crusty bread on the side for mopping up the juices.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, large prawns. Smaller prawns will cook too quickly and become tough.
  • Clean the prawns properly. Remove the heads, shells, and devein them.
  • Marinate the prawns for at least 30 minutes. This will help them absorb the flavors of the marinade.
  • Use a hot pan. This will help the prawns cook evenly and prevent them from sticking.
  • Cook the prawns for 2-3 minutes per side. Overcooking will make them tough.
  • Add the sauce to the pan and cook for 1-2 minutes. This will help the sauce thicken and coat the prawns.
  • Serve the prawns immediately. They are best enjoyed hot.

Conclusion:

Garlicky prawns with sherry is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The prawns are cooked in a flavorful sauce made with garlic, sherry, and butter. This dish can be served as an appetizer or main course. It is also a great way to use up leftover prawns.
