Observations
What are the health benefits of prawns?
Prawns are low in calories and high in protein, making them a great choice for a healthy diet. They also contain essential nutrients like omega-3 fatty acids, vitamins, and minerals that support heart health and overall well-being.
Can I use frozen prawns for this recipe?
Yes, you can use frozen prawns! Just make sure to thaw them completely before marinating and baking to ensure even cooking and flavor absorption.
What can I serve with roasted garlic and herb prawns?
These prawns pair wonderfully with a mixed salad, rice, or crusty bread to soak up the delicious marinade. You can also serve them with pasta for a heartier meal.
How do I know when the prawns are cooked?
Prawns are cooked when they turn pink and opaque. They should curl slightly but not be overcooked, as this can make them tough. The baking time in this recipe is designed to achieve perfect results.
Can I add other herbs or spices to the marinade?
Absolutely! Feel free to experiment with other herbs and spices like parsley, cilantro, or chili flakes to customize the flavor to your liking. Just keep in mind that some herbs may have stronger flavors than others.
