Ingredients
Instructions
Prepare the Prawns
Ensure your prawns are peeled and deveined. Pat them dry with paper towels. This helps them sear nicely.
Sauté the Garlic
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or frying pan over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and red pepper flakes. Sauté for about 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic.
Cook the Prawns
Add the prawns to the skillet in a single layer. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they turn pink and opaque. Avoid overcrowding the pan; cook in batches if necessary.
Deglaze and Finish
Pour in the white wine (or chicken broth) and lemon juice. Bring to a simmer and cook for another 1-2 minutes, allowing the sauce to reduce slightly and the flavors to meld. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
Serve
Stir in the fresh chopped parsley. Serve immediately with crusty bread for dipping in the delicious garlicky sauce, or over a bed of rice.
