Prawn & asparagus skewers

Ingredients

  • 230g pack Waitrose Asparagus, trimmed
  • 180g pack Waitrose Raw Extra Large King Prawns
  • Finely grated zest of 1 lemon and juice of 2
  • ½ x 28g pack coriander, chopped
  • 2cm piece fresh ginger, peeled and finely grated
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • ½ x115g pack baby spinach

Instruction

  1. 1 Soak 8 bamboo skewers in cold water for half an hour. Cut the asparagus into 3-5cm lengths, then put the pieces into a bowl with the prawns, the zest and juice of 1 lemon, coriander, ginger and
    1 tbsp olive oil. Season and mix well.
  2. 2 In a separate bowl put the juice of the second lemon with the remaining 2 tbsp of the oil, mustard and seasoning. Whisk and set aside.
  3. 3 Thread the asparagus and prawns onto the skewers, distributing them evenly. Heat the barbecue (or griddle/grill). When medium hot cook the skewers for 2-3 minutes each side, until the prawns turn pink and are cooked through. Put the spinach leaves in a small bowl to serve (as above), or scatter leaves over a platter and set the skewers on top. Drizzle over some of the dressing and serve with the remaining dressing on the side.
