Creating Char-Grilled King Prawns with Lemon is simple when you follow these steps:

1. Prep the Prawns: Start by peeling and deveining the king prawns if not already done. Rinse them under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.
2. Make Marinade: In a bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, lemon zest, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
3. Marinate Prawns: Add the prawns to the bowl and toss until they are evenly coated with the marinade. Let them marinate for about 10-15 minutes.
4. Preheat the Grill: While your prawns are marinating, preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If using a charcoal grill, ensure the coals are hot and ash-covered; for gas, heat it up for about 10 minutes.
5. Grill the Prawns: Once the grill is hot, place the marinated prawns on the grill. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until they are pink and opaque.
6. Check Doneness: Remove the prawns from the grill once they are cooked through. Be careful not to overcook them, as they can become rubbery.
7. Plate and Serve: Arrange the grilled prawns on a serving platter. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
