Grilled Prawns Shrimp With Papaya Salsa

This is from australian table magazine, 2004. a posh addition to your next barbie! (i always think prawns look fancy, even though their not really). Note that the recipe actually calls for at least 2 limes, one for the marinade, and one for the salsa, and an extra one to garnish, if you so wish.

Steps

Preliminary: if using wooden skewers , soak in water 30 minutes to prevent them catching fire on the barbecue.
For prawns , add honey , soy sauce , sesame oil , lime rind and juice , and ginger in a bowl and mix well.
Add prawns and stir to coat.
Cover and chill for 20 minutes.
For the salsa , mix papaya , lime juice , coriander leaves , chilli and onion in a small bowl and set aside.
Thread prawns onto presoaked skewers and cook over hot coals 2-3 minutes: no longer , or they will go rubbery.
Serve with papaya salsa and lime wedges.
