  1. Shell the prawns leaving the tails intact. To butterfly the prawns, cut along the back of the prawns, about halfway through. Remove the veins.

  2. Add the prawns to a heated oiled grill pan or heavy-based frying pan; cook until the prawns change colour and are just cooked through.

  3. Meanwhile, combine the butter, chilli, juice and coriander in a bowl and mix well.

  4. Serve the mesclun with the prawns, drizzled with the hot butter mixture.

  5. Not suitable to freeze. Butter suitable to microwave.

  6. Tip: the butter is also delicious served with grilled scampi or yabbies.
