Chili Garlic Prawns in Butter

I guess it's pretty obvious that I love prawns and shrimps! "wink" I'm sharing with you Chili Garlic Prawns which I cooked on Father's day. With that, I'd like to greet all wonderful Dads and single-Moms a Happy Dad's day!
Aside from Chili Garlic Prawns in Butter, I also cooked Creamy White Wine Garlic Shrimp Pasta which I will also be sharing on my next blog.

CHILI GARLIC PRAWNS in BUTTER

This is not my original recipe, but I always put twists on my cooking to make it more personalized and to suit my taste. I always try to make the steps as easy as possible so that you can also cook this at home.

Ingredients:

• 3/4 kilo Large prawns (or more if you want to)
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 5 red bird's eye chilies or siling labuyo, chopped (I use scissors to cut them)
• 1/2 cup butter
• 2 stems spring onions, chopped
• 4 stems pepper leaves (dahon ng sili)
• salt, ground pepper, chili powder

How to cook:

• Wash and clean the prawns. Snip off the hard, pointed part above the head. Set aside.

• Heat oil in pan. Add the butter. When butter has melted, add garlic, then the red chilies.

• Put the prawns. Sprinkle with salt, pepper and chili powder (optional)

•  Turn on the other side and cover with the butter mixture. Cook for about 5 minutes only.

• Add in the chopped pepper leaves and spring onions. Stir. 
• Adjust seasonings according to your preference. 
• Done! Transfer to a serving platter and arrange in a way that would appeal to the eyes, too! 

See? Fast and easy to cook. Try this at home and impress them! Serve with hot rice or pasta and ice-cold drinks. If you baked something for dessert, serve it afterwards. Yummy!
