Garlic Prawns
Recipe by:
Lynn Cole
Marinating the prawns overnight with the garlic ensures that they will sing with pungent flavour, and baking them keeps them deliciously juicy. Serve these tasty morsels sizzling hot, straight from the oven.

Used different ingredients.
I halved the oil, omitted the lemon and wine and parsley and added 1/2 cup of dry sherry, chives in place of parsley and 2 tablespoons of sweet chilli sauce.
