Spicy Cajun Prawns

My dad loves this dish!

Ingredients:
medium or large green prawns
1 teaspoon sweet paprika
½ teaspoon chilli flakes
2½ teaspoons Cajun spices
1 medium onion finely slised from top to base
½ finely sliced into strips red capsicum
4 cloves garlic, finely chopped
60g butter
½ cup cream (any takers to try this with coconut milk?)
1 tablespoon finely chopped parsley


How-To:
Cut off the head and down the centre back of each prawns. Devine, but dont take out the shelves. Combine paprika, chilli flakes and Cajun spices, and sprinkle it over the prawns. Marinate for about 20-30 minutes.

Cook the onion, capsicum and garlic in the butter until well softened. Add the prawns and cook on high heat until it changes colour.

Add the cream and let simmer, stirring until the prawns are tender. Stir in parsley - and voila!
