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 fresh, large prawns. Smaller prawns will cook more quickly and can become tough, while larger prawns will stay juicy and tender.
  • Peel and devein the prawns before cooking. This will help to remove any sand or grit from the prawns and make them more visually appealing.
  • Use a large skillet or wok to cook the prawns. This will help to ensure that the prawns cook evenly and don't crowd each other.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. If you add too many prawns to the pan, they will steam instead of fry and won't get as crispy.
  • Cook the prawns over high heat. This will help to sear the prawns and lock in their flavor.
  • Don't overcook the prawns. Prawns cook very quickly, so it's important to watch them closely to avoid overcooking them. Overcooked prawns will become tough and rubbery.

Conclusion:

Low-fat garlic prawns are a delicious and healthy meal that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. This dish is packed with flavor and is sure to please even the most discerning palate. The prawns are cooked in a flavorful garlic sauce that is made with low-fat ingredients, making this dish a great option for those who are watching their weight or cholesterol. Serve this dish with rice, noodles, or vegetables for a complete meal.
