1. In a heavy frying pan or sauté pan, melt the butter and gently cook the onion, crushed garlic and pepper until soft but not browned.

2. Turn up the heat slightly, and add the prawns, mix well and sauté for 2 to 3 minutes. If using scampi, cook for 4 to 5 minutes.

3. Add the lemon juice, check the seasoning and garnish with chopped parsley. Served immediately with a plain crisp green salad and fresh bread to mop up the garlic juices.
