LEMON CHILLI PRAWNS

As someone who loves spice and strongly believes a dash of lemon juice can fix anything, this easy prawn recipe is one of my favourites. The marinade is a blend of everyday spices, allowing me to substitute the prawns for fish or chicken for quick and inexpensive dinner prep.

300g prawns/shrimp

3 tsp cumin powder

3 tsp chilli powder

2 tsp salt

2 tsp ground pepper

3 tbsp lemon juice

2 tbsp olive oil
