Creating Garlic Confit Butter BBQ Butterflied Prawns is a simple process. Follow these steps for success:

1. Prepare the Garlic Confit Butter: In a small saucepan, combine garlic confit and unsalted butter. Heat over low until melted, stirring occasionally to combine flavors. Remove from heat and stir in lemon juice, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.

2. Butterfly the Prawns: Rinse the prawns under cold water. Using a sharp knife, slice down the back of each prawn, ensuring you don’t cut through completely. This opens up the prawn for an attractive presentation. Pat them dry with paper towels.

3. Marinate Prawns: Place the butterflied prawns in a mixing bowl. Pour half of the prepared garlic confit butter over the prawns, turning to coat evenly. Allow marinating for about 10 minutes for enhanced flavor.

4. Preheat the Grill: Heat your grill to medium-high. Ensure the grates are clean and lightly oiled to prevent sticking.

5. Grill the Prawns: Arrange the marinated prawns, shell side down, directly on the grill. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, brushing with the remaining garlic confit butter, until they are pink and opaque.

6. Serve: Once cooked, remove the prawns from the grill. Transfer them to a serving platter, garnish with chopped parsley, and serve with lemon wedges.
