Miss Kabaki
These grilled prawns are so easy to make and the addition of sausages just adds that extra taste. The chimichurri sauce is used to baste the prawns.

  • 1/2 cup Olive oil

  • 1/2 Onion
  • 1 tsp Finely chopped garlic
  • 1/2 tsp Chilies

Instructions
 

  • Start by marinating the prawns using a mixture of garlic, ginger, soy sauce, salt, lemon juice and olive oil. Coat the prawns with this mixture and refrigerate for at least an hour, overnight is best.
  • To assemble, start by cutting the sausages into thin round shapes.
  • Using skewers begin assembling the prawns with the cut sausages in the middle. I added 3 prawns and 3 sausages per skewer.
  • Make the chimichurri sauce by combining all the ingredients. Baste the prawns with this sauce . This is where you pour a marinade on meat before and during cooking to make it moist.
  • To grill, heat a grill pan over medium heat, pour some olive oil and let it heat up.
  • Start grilling the prawn skewers 3 minutes on both sides. Keep basting them to keep them moist.
  • Serve while hot.
