Grilled Lemon Prawns

Yield: Serves 8

Ingredients

1 cup olive oil

1 Tablespoon dried thyme, crumbled

2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper

24 prawns or jumbo shrimp

Directions:

In a large bowl stir together oil, herbs, zest, salt and pepper, add the prawns, and toss to coat well. Let the prawns marinate, covered and chilled, for at least 1 hour or overnight.

Stir in the lemon juice, let the mixture stand at room temperature for 30 minutes, and drain the prawns in a fine sieve.

Grill the herb-coated prawns on a rack set about 4 inches over glowing coals for 3 minutes on each side, or until they are cooked through. Serve with lemon wedges.
