Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Mix all the seasoning mix ingredients in a food processor and set aside.
  2. Stored in a sealed container, it will keep indefinitely for future use.
  3. Blend the garlic, olive oil, 2 T seasoning mix, lemon juice, honey, and soy sauce in a bowl.
  4. Add the prawns and the chopped parsley to the mixture and toss well to coat.
  5. Refrigerate overnight.
  6. Preheat oven to 500°F.
  7. Place prawns with the marinade in a large, heavy skillet (large enough to fit prawns in a single layer or cook in batches) and place in oven.
  8. In about 2 to 3 minutes, shake the pan to ensure even cooking and repeat in another 2 to 3 minutes.
  9. At this point the mixture should be bubbling and the prawns will be turning opaque.
  10. Transfer the pan to a stovetop, over medium heat and begin adding the butter in 1 to 2 T increments, shaking the pan the entire time, allowing the butter to emulsify into the mixture before adding any more butter.
  11. This process should take about 4 to 5 minutes.
  12. When completed, pour onto a platter and serve immediately with plenty of good, crispy bread.
