Ingredients

6 large raw, shelled & deveined prawns
1/2 clove crushed and finely chopped garlic
1/4 teaspoon crushed, dried red chile (more or less)
1/4 teaspoon coarse sea salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1/4 whole lemon (to serve)

Directions

1

Heat the oven to its MAX!
2

Put the olive oil in an individual oven proof dish (I use Spanish earthenware but anything capable of taking high temparatures will do).
3

Heat the oil in the oven until smoking!
4

Throw in all ingredients and stir quickly.
5

Serve immediately whilst the dish is still sizzling- the shrimp is ready to eat as soon as it changes from blue to pink.
6

Serve with lemon quarters and plenty of good bread to soak up the juices.
