Cooking Tips

• If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes before threading the prawns to prevent them from burning on the grill.
• You can add vegetables like bell peppers, onions, or cherry tomatoes to the skewers for added flavor and color.
• For extra heat, add more chili paste or sprinkle some red pepper flakes over the prawns before grilling.

Storage and Serving

• Leftover prawn skewers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
• To reheat, place the skewers on a baking sheet and bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes, or until heated through.
• Serve the prawn skewers hot as an appetizer or as a main course with steamed rice or a fresh salad.
