1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 cup orange juice
1 lemon, juiced

1 fresh red chile, chopped
1 clove garlic, crushed
1 dash Worcestershire sauce
8 extra large prawns, with shells

  1. In a bowl, combine olive oil, orange juice, lemon juice, brandy, chile, garlic and Worcestershire sauce. Mix the marinade well.
  2. With a small knife, slice through shell and back of each prawn and remove "vein." Add prawns to marinade and set aside for 20 minutes.
  3. Drain prawns then blot them dry.
