Creamy Garlic Prawns
On the Hob
serves 4
Creamy garlic prawns are quick, luxurious, and full of flavour. Juicy prawns are lightly seared, then finished in a velvety garlic cream sauce with a hint of lemon for balance.
This is a brilliant weeknight dish that feels restaurant-worthy in under 30 minutes, especially served with pasta, rice, or crusty bread.
