Gamberoni Alla Griglia
Savor the taste of an Italian summer with Gamberoni alla Griglia. This exquisite dish takes you to the heart of Italy with its succulent large prawns marinated in a tantalizing blend of garlic, fresh parsley, and zesty lemon.

Ingredients
- Large prawns
- 12, peeled and deveined
- Extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons
- Garlic
- 3 cloves, minced
- Lemon
- 1, juiced
- Fresh parsley
- 1/4 cup, finely chopped
- Salt
- 1/2 teaspoon, or to taste
- Black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon, freshly ground
Instructions
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, ensuring it's clean and oiled to prevent the prawns from sticking.
- In a large bowl, combine the extra virgin olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, finely chopped parsley, salt, and freshly ground black pepper. This will serve as your marinade.
- Add the peeled and deveined prawns to the marinade, ensuring they're fully coated. Allow the prawns to marinate for at least 5-10 minutes to let the flavors infuse.
- Place the marinated prawns on the preheated grill. Cook them for about 2-3 minutes on each side. They should turn a beautiful pink color and become opaque when done.
- Once cooked, remove the prawns from the grill and place them on a serving platter. Garnish with some additional chopped parsley for an added pop of color and freshness.
- Serve your Gamberoni alla Griglia hot, ideally with a side of freshly grilled vegetables and a slice of lemon for an additional zing. Enjoy!
Tips
- For a variation, you can incorporate a splash of white wine into the marinade, or add a hint of spice with a pinch of red pepper flakes. Remember, the key to a good Gamberoni alla Griglia is using the freshest prawns you can find.
