Prepare the prawns: If your prawns are not already peeled and deveined, do so now. Make a shallow cut down the back of each prawn with a sharp knife to remove the dark vein. Leave the tails on for easier handling and presentation.
⏱️ 15 minutes - 2
Preheat your barbecue (grill) to medium-high heat. Aim for a temperature of approximately 200-230°C (400-450°F). Clean the grill grates thoroughly.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 3
Season and butter the prawns: Place the prepared prawns in a large bowl. Drizzle with melted garlic butter, ensuring they are well coated. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. You can also add a squeeze of lemon juice at this stage if desired.
⏱️ 3 minutes - 4
Grill the prawns: Arrange the prawns on the preheated barbecue, shell-side down. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until the prawns turn opaque pink and are cooked through. Avoid overcrowding the grill; cook in batches if necessary.
⏱️ 4-5 minutes - 5
Serve immediately: Transfer the cooked prawns to a serving platter. Garnish generously with fresh chopped parsley and serve with lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over the prawns.
