Instructions

Stay Awake

1 Soak wooden skewers in cold water for 20 minutes before using, to prevent them from burning. Thread prawns and courgette ribbons alternately onto skewers.

2 Preheat a barbecue hotplate or chargrill pan to medium-high. Lightly spray skewers with oil. Cook for 4-5 minutes, turning, or until prawns are golden and cooked through.

3 Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine lemon juice, olive oil, anchovies, baby capers, tomatoes, dill and chives. Season with pepper. To serve, drizzle prawn skewers with tomato dressing.

Variations

Make it vegan: Replace prawns with your choice of vegetable or mushrooms.

Make it low FODMAP: Weigh courgettes and limit to 65g per serve (larger serves become high FODMAP).

HFG tip

Use a vegetable peeler to peel long thin strips from the courgette (or carrot, if making it low FODMAP). To make up weight, add in carrots cut into ribbons.
