Butter-Poached Spot Prawns with XO Sauce
Spot Prawns & Sidestripe Prawns
BC Prawns are caught along the entire BC coast. Sashimi grade, these deep-water delights are among the sweetest and most exquisite on the planet. Spot Prawns – Whatever you do, do not overcook – or they will turn to mush! Either boil them until they float, then immediately drain and ice, or do a quick 10 second sauté on each side; it’s all you need! Sidestripes are tougher and can handle being on the grill a little longer.
We recommend this delicious treatment of Spot Prawns – everything is better with butter – right! Here’s the recipe from our latest QCL Cookbook!
