 --------  ------------  --------------------------------
   12                    Giant Prawns, shelled and
                         -deveined (heads and tails
                         -intact)
      1/4   c            Butter
    1       c            Orange juice (freshly
                         -squeezed)
    2       tb           Sherry
    1       t            Orange Zest (grated)
    2       ea           Green onions, tops and white
                         -(minced)
    1       t            Ginger root (freshly grated)
 
   Soak a dozen long wooden skewers in water for 30
   minutes. Then push skewers through prawns, lengthwise,
   from head to tail with only 1 to a skewer.
   
   Combine all ingredients in saucepan and cook over
   medium to low heat, stirring, until butter is
   completely melted.
   
   Dip skewered prawns in the orange sauce and position
   on oiled grill rack about 4 inches above the coals.
   Baste liberally with sauce and grill for 2 minutes.
   Turn the prawn over and baste again, cooking for
   another 2 minutes. Smaller prawn will be done at this
   point, but continue basting and turning larger prawn
   until they are pink and cooked through. Remove from
   heat immediately when done, as they will get tough of
   overcooked. Use any remaining sauce for a dip for the
   prawns.
