Ingredients食材

  • 1kg raw jumbo tiger prawns (U8), shell on生虎虾 1 公斤,U8 巨无霸,带壳
  • 100g unsalted butter, softened无盐黄油 100 克,室温软化
  • 4 cloves garlic, crushed蒜 4 瓣,压成蓉
  • Zest of 1 lemon, plus 2 lemons halved for the grill柠檬皮屑 1 个的量,另备柠檬 2 个对半切
  • 2 tbsp flat-leaf parsley, chopped香芹碎 2 汤匙
  • 1 tbsp olive oil橄榄油 1 汤匙
  • 1 tsp sea salt flakes海盐片 1 茶匙
  • 1/2 tsp cracked black pepper黑胡椒碎 半茶匙
  • A pinch of chilli flakes辣椒碎 1 小撮

Method做法

  • 1Butterfly each prawn: cut through the shell down the back almost to the tail, open it out flat and lift out the vein.虎虾从背部连壳剪开到近尾部,摊平压开,挑掉虾线。
  • 2Mash the butter with the garlic, lemon zest, parsley, chilli flakes and half the salt.黄油加蒜蓉、柠檬皮屑、香芹碎、辣椒碎和一半的海盐,压拌成蒜香黄油。
  • 3Brush the cut flesh with olive oil and season with the remaining salt and the black pepper.虾肉那面刷一层橄榄油,撒上剩下的海盐和黑胡椒。
  • 4Heat the BBQ plate to high and lay the prawns shell side down; cook 4 minutes without moving them.烧烤炉大火烧热,虾壳朝下放上去烤 4 分钟,中途不要动它。
  • 5Flip, drop a teaspoon of the garlic butter into each prawn and cook 1-2 minutes more, until the flesh is just opaque.翻面,每只虾放 1 茶匙蒜香黄油,再烤 1~2 分钟,虾肉刚转白就可以了。
  • 6Char the lemon halves cut side down on the plate while the prawns finish.同时把柠檬切面朝下放在炉面上烤出焦痕。
  • 7Pile onto a platter, squeeze the charred lemon over and scrape any butter left on the plate back over the top.全部装盘,挤上烤过的柠檬汁,炉面剩下的黄油也刮回虾上。

Madam's tip太太小贴士

Cook them shell side down for most of the time — the shell works like a little pan and keeps the juices and butter around the meat.尽量壳朝下烤,虾壳就是天然的小锅,汁水和黄油都锁在肉里。
