Jumbo Prawns with Chive Butter

This elegant jumbo prawns with chive butter recipe offers a sophisticated way to enjoy seafood at home. The combination of sharp Dijon mustard and fresh lemon juice cuts perfectly through the richness of the melted butter, creating a silky sauce that beautifully coats the tender, butterflied prawns. It is a dish that relies on simple, high-quality ingredients to deliver a restaurant-standard flavour profile with very little effort.

As a high-protein option, these prawns make an excellent light lunch or an impressive dinner party starter. Grilling the prawns in their butterflied shape ensures they cook quickly and evenly, while also providing a decorative presentation. Serve them alongside a crisp green salad or some crusty sourdough bread to soak up every drop of the savoury herb butter.
