- Carefully thread 3 marinated prawns onto each kebab stick and grill on a hot griddle pan for about 2 – 3 minutes while turning.
- Set aside.
Salad:
- Lay the ribbons of cucumber and carrots over one half of a serving platter.
- Place the cherry tomatoes in between and sprinkle with micro greens.
- Drizzle with the olive oil.
- Lay the grilled marinated prawn kebabs on the other half of the platter and place the lime wedges in between.
- Serve 1 kebab per person together with 1/2 - 1 cup low GI rice like Basmati rice and the prepared salad
- Tip: To add extra heat to the marinade add extra chilli and a few chilli seeds plus chopped fresh coriander.
Additional informational:
- One kebab with ½ - 1 cup lower GI rice and salad per person is equivalent to: + 4 portions low fat Protein (depending on size of the prawn tails), 1 – 2 portions starch and vegetables.
- GI = 44 (if low GI Basmati rice is used). GL per serving with ½ - 1 cup with low GI rice = 13
