Fresh Garlic Butterflied King Prawns

Large king prawns split down the back and opened flat, with the shell and head still on. Shown here topped with garlic and ready for the grill or the pan.

Butterflying lets the seasoning reach the flesh and cuts the cooking time right down. The meat stays plump and sweet.
