These grilled prawns with honey-ginger barbecue sauce are the perfect addition to any summer feast. Combining the natural sweetness of succulent jumbo prawns with a zingy, aromatic glaze, this recipe offers a sophisticated twist on classic barbecue fare. The ginger provides a subtle heat that cuts through the rich honey, creating a beautifully balanced savoury flavour profile that will delight your guests.
As a naturally dairy-free dish, this recipe is an excellent choice for inclusive entertaining, whether served as a light starter or a main course. Using skewers ensures the prawns remain juicy while achieving those essential charred edges on the grill. Serve these alongside a fresh seasonal salad or some fluffy jasmine rice for a healthy meal that captures the vibrant flavours of outdoor cooking.
