These Garlic Lime Mojo Grilled Prawns are bright, fresh and full of citrus flavour. Miami Mojo seasoning combines garlic, herbs and citrus notes that work beautifully with seafood.
They cook quickly on the BBQ or grill, making them perfect for summer cooking, light dinners or as a flavourful starter. The result is juicy prawns with a slightly charred edge and vibrant citrus aroma.
