Ingredients

Directions

  1. Prep the Prawns : Start by cleaning your Dublin Bay prawns thoroughly. Gently remove the shells, but make sure to leave the tails intact – they add a beautiful presentation and are easy to hold onto!
  2. Sauté Garlic : Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pan or skillet over medium heat. Add your finely chopped garlic and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until it becomes wonderfully fragrant. Be careful not to let it brown or burn!
  3. Cook Prawns : Increase the heat to medium-high. Add the prepped prawns to the pan in a single layer if possible. Sauté them for just 3-4 minutes, turning once, until they turn pink and opaque. They cook very quickly!
  4. Deglaze with Wine : Pour in the white wine, then season generously with salt and pepper. Let the mixture simmer gently for about 5 minutes, or until the prawns are completely cooked through and the wine has reduced slightly, creating a luscious sauce.
  5. Serve : Remove from heat. If desired, sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and freshness. Serve your delicious prawns immediately with some crusty bread to soak up all that amazing garlic and wine sauce, or alongside a simple side of rice. Enjoy!
