Shrimp on The Barbie

Ingredients:

12 Giant Prawns, shelled and heads and tails intact

1/4 cup Butter

1 cup Orange juice (freshly, squeezed)

2 tablespoons Sherry

1 teaspoon Orange Zest (grated)

2 each Green onions, tops and white

1 teaspoon of freshly grated Ginger root,

Directions:

Soak a dozen long wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes. Then push the skewers through prawns, lengthwise, from head to tail, one prawn per skewer.

Combine all ingredients in saucepan and cook over medium to low heat, stirring, until the butter is completely melted. Dip skewered prawns in the orange sauce and position on oiled grill rack about 4 inches above the coals.

Baste skewered prawns liberally with sauce and grill for 2 minutes. Turn each prawn over and baste again, cooking for another 2 minutes. Smaller prawn will be done at this point, but continue basting and turning larger prawn until they are pink and are thoroughly cooked through. Remove from heat immediately when done, as they will get tough if overcooked.

Use any remaining orange sauce for dipping the prawns.
