Cooking Steps
• Slice capsicum into thin strips. • Roughly chop baby spinach leaves. • Drain sweetcorn. • Slice lemon into wedges. • In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise and a squeeze of lemon juice.
• In a medium bowl, combine mild Caribbean jerk seasoning and a drizzle of olive oil. • Add peeled prawns and toss to coat.
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. Stir-fry capsicum until slightly softened, 2-3 minutes. • Add sweetcorn and cook until lightly charred, 4-5 minutes. Transfer veggies to a bowl and cover to keep warm. TIP: Cover the pan with a lid if the corn kernels are ‘popping’ out.
• Return pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • Cook prawns, tossing, until pink and starting to curl up, 3-4 minutes. TIP: The spice blend will char slightly in the pan, this adds to the flavour!
• Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan, add the water, stock concentrate and bring to the boil. • Add couscous and a drizzle of olive oil, stirring to combine. Cover with a lid, then remove from heat. • Set aside until all the water is absorbed, 5 minutes. Fluff up with a fork. • Stir through baby spinach leaves, corn and capsicum.
• Divide couscous between bowls. Top with Caribbean prawns. • Drizzle with lemon mayo. Serve with any remaining lemon wedges. Enjoy!
