List of Ingredients




1 lb. prawns (21-25 count)
1/2 cup flour
2 Tbl. clarified butter or vegetable oil
2 Tbl. steak seasoning
1 1/2 tsp. garlic
1/2 Tbl. cayenne pepper
1/2 Tbl. black pepper
1 tsp. Kosher salt
1 tsp. red pepper flakes
1 tsp. thyme
1 tsp. rosemary
1 tsp. oregano
1/4 cup white wine
1/2 cup dark beer or ale
1 1/2 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
2 Tbl. butter

Recipe



Coat prawns in flour. Heat clarified butter or vegetable oil on high heat. Add prawns to saute pan. Coat with steak seasoning (your favorite store brand like Lawry's or Johnny's will work fine). Add garlic to pan.

To make the spice mixture, mix cayenne pepper, black pepper, salt, red pepper flakes, thyme, rosemary and oregano. Grind them together in a spice grinder or food processor. Top prawns with 1 1/2 Tbl. of the spice mixture.

Add white wine, beer and Worcestershire sauce to pan. Simmer 2-3 minutes until prawns are cooked. Swirl in butter to finish the sauce. Serve with a thick rustic bread.

Serves 2.
