Step-by-step
- In a high-powered blender or food processor, blitz together the unsalted butter, grated ginger, garlic, coriander, lime zest and Maldon salt. Mix this until you have a smooth and vibrantly green butter.
- Heat up the BBQ or alternatively you can use a griddle pan.
- Brush the prawns all over with the green butter until they are well coated.
- Place them on the griddle and cook for 2 minutes on each side until they are bright pink and cooked with light charring on their shells.
- Remove the prawns from the griddle and brush with some more of the butter, allowing it to soak in.
- Add the lime wedges to the hot griddle pan and cook them for a minute on each side to char.
- Remove the lime wedges and squeeze them over the prawns. Sprinkle over the finely diced chilli and coriander leaves and the prawns are ready to serve.
