Jerk Prawns
You can make your own jerk seasoning or use a store-bought one. This comes together fast and can be sautéed, broiled, or grilled. I like to serve this with coconut cauliflower rice, some shaved cucumber, and a garnish of fresh lime.
Servings: 2
Calories: 306kcal
Ingredients
- 1 pound shrimp deveined and peeled
- 1 1/2 tablespoons jerk seasoning
- 1 tablespoon avocado oil
Instructions
- Toss the shrimp with the jerk seasoning blend and thread onto metal skewers (if using wood, make sure to soak them for 30 min before using to prevent them from burning).
- Brush the grate of a hot grill with oil and grill for 2-3 minutes per side, or until cooked through. Alternatively, add the oil to a pan and sauté until translucent and cooked through, about 6 minutes total. Or broil for 5 minutes.
