If you think preparing prawns during workweek is too hard, think again. This easy delicious sauce made with dark rum, vanilla bean and coconut milk goes beautifully with plump white tiger prawns and is done in 15 minutes. Dinner is ready. Serve over some garlic rice, pasta or some crusty bread to dip into the sauce!

- Peel, devein and clean shrimp, keeping tails on. Use the paper towels to dry them. Cut thevanilla bean lengthwise and scrape seeds out of the vanilla.
- Heat the coconut oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the prawns and saute for 2-3 minutes and or until they have turned pink. Remove them from the pan and set aside.
- Add dark rum and the scraped vanilla seeds together with the husk to the pan and reduce the rum to about 2 tablespoons. Add the coconut milk, lemon zest, juice, and ginger and reduce the mixture by half. Taste and season with salt.
- Return the prawns to the pan and cook for 1-2 minutes or until heated through. Garnish with lemon wedges and parsley.

...it's time for prawns, thanks for the reminder.
Eres especialista en combinar ingredientes para mí inimaginables, pero estoy segura que aciertas al presentar el plato. El marisco no le gusta a todo el mundo pese a lo que pueda parecer y hay que prepararlo apetecible para que atraiga la atención de los comensales. Como el tuyo.
The sauce sounds really wonderful Angie, what a great summer recipe!

Very unusual combo for a savory dish indeed.
That looks absolutely fabulous!!
Cant imagine what the flavour will be like
Wow - I never would have thought of using vanilla seeds for savoury dishes especially seafood. This sounds unique and intriguing!
Me gusta los langostinos. Gracias por la receta. Te mando un beso.
This looks good, vanilla coconut sound tempting. Thank you for the recipe.
That's a really yummy one for me Angie.
Adoro questa ricetta!!! E' fantastica...
We had a dish with shrimp and coconut milk for dinner last night. We hadn’t made it for a while and it was delicious!
This looks yummy. I love how you always have something (which to me) is unique for the dish. I never heard of vanilla bean and prawns.
Hi Angie, We love prawns and we like them with coconut so this is a highly desirable entree for us! The problem is that we rarely cook seafood at home. Take Care, Big Daddy Dave
Rum and coconut milk and vanilla and ginger? I am all in!
This is another dish I want to make soon. We just bought some beautiful shrimp from our farmers market (from Alaska) and I’m very excited to try some different dishes with them. David
