INGREDIENTS

700g green Prawns, peeled and deveined, tails intact

METHOD

Make the Chermoula: finely chop coriander and parsley leaves together in a food processor. Add remaining ingredients and mix well. 

Spread Chermoula generously over the prawns, cover and refrigerate for 20-30 minutes. 

Meanwhile, make Chickpea Salad: combine chickpeas, tomatoes, onion and parsley in a large bowl. Add the lemon juice, olive oil, salt and pepper and toss to combine.   Heat a barbecue or char-grill plate.

Cook the prawns for 1-2 minutes until well coloured, then turn and cook for a further minute or 2 until they are just opaque all the way through. Divide between plates and serve with Chickpea Salad on the side.
