Type: Shellfish
Serves: 6 people

Recipe Ingredients

1/4 cup 59mlOlive oil
10 cups 2370mlGarlic cloves - thinly sliced (large)
1 1/2 lbs 681g / 24ozGiant prawns - peeled and deveined
1 teaspoon 5mlMinced arbol chile
1/2 teaspoon 2.5mlSalt
1 tablespoon 15mlFresh lime juice
1   Avocado Mayonnaise - see * Note
1   Ancho Chile Mayonnaise - see * Note

Recipe Instructions

* Note: See the "Avocado Mayonnaise" and "Ancho Chile Mayonnaise" recipes which are included in this collection.

In a large heavy skillet, preferably cast-iron, heat the olive oil over medium-low heat. Add the garlic and cook very slowly, stirring frequently, until the garlic has turned golden, about 3 or 4 minutes. Be very careful not to let the garlic scorch or burn. Transfer the mixture to a shallow ceramic baking dish and let cool. Add the prawns and the chile to the garlicky oil, toss to coat them evenly, and refrigerate overnight, covered.

Make the mayonnaises and, when ready to serve, preheat a grill or broiler to medium heat. Grill the prawns for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, then transfer to a warm platter. Scatter the salt and lime juice over them and serve immediately, accompanied by the Avocado Mayonnaise and the Ancho Chile Mayonnaise.

This recipe yields 6 servings.
