This super easy, quick and delicious Tiger Prawn dish is a great choice as a starter or as main dish. It comes together in one pan baking dish and the meaty tiger prawns and veggies with the juicy sauce is finger licking good.

You can make it with regular prawns, tiger prawns or the king prawns, choice is yours. All you need is to add is some veggies in your baking dish and you’re good to go.
