For an extra depth of flavor, consider adding a touch of ginger or garlic to the marinade. If you don't have raspberry vinegar, you can substitute with red wine vinegar or balsamic vinegar. Adjust the amount of chili oil and jalapeno pepper to control the spice level to your liking. For a smoky flavor, grill the skewers over medium heat instead of broiling. The raspberry dipping sauce can be made a day in advance and stored in the refrigerator.

01 Step
Recipe View Prepare the Marinade: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the lime juice, chili oil, and sea salt until the salt is fully dissolved. (5 minutes)
02 Step
Recipe View Butterfly the Prawns: Cut each shrimp through the back vein, nearly all the way through, leaving the two sides connected. (10 minutes)
03 Step
Recipe View Marinate: Toss the butterflied shrimp in the lime-chili marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to fully infuse. (4 hours +)
04 Step
Recipe View Soak Skewers: Submerge the wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes before grilling. This prevents them from burning. (30 minutes)
05 Step
Recipe View Prepare Raspberry Sauce: In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the raspberry vinegar, sugar, and fresh raspberries. Bring to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally. (5 minutes)
06 Step
Recipe View Strain Sauce: Cook until the raspberries have softened and broken down into a sauce-like consistency. Scrape the mixture into a fine-mesh strainer set over a bowl. Allow the excess liquid to drain away completely, leaving behind a thick raspberry pulp. Discard the strained liquid. (10 minutes)
07 Step
Recipe View Spice it Up: Stir the minced jalapeno pepper into the raspberry pulp to create the dipping sauce. Adjust the amount of jalapeno according to your desired level of heat. (2 minutes)
08 Step
Recipe View Preheat Broiler: Preheat your oven's broiler and position the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source. (5 minutes)
09 Step
Recipe View Skewer the Prawns: Remove the shrimp from the marinade. Thread each butterflied prawn onto a soaked skewer, ensuring the tail points upwards, resembling a lollipop. (10 minutes)
10 Step
Recipe View Broil: Place the skewered prawns onto a broiler pan. Cook under the preheated broiler until the shrimp turn pink and slightly toasted, about 2-3 minutes per side. Watch carefully to prevent burning. (5 minutes)
11 Step
Recipe View Serve: Serve the Butterfly Chili Lime Prawn Spedini immediately, accompanied by the vibrant raspberry dipping sauce. Garnish with fresh lime wedges and cilantro, if desired.

May 27, 2025I found the jalapeno a bit too strong for my taste, so I reduced the amount and it was perfect.

Apr 29, 2025I made this for a summer barbecue and everyone raved about it! The presentation with the butterflied prawns on skewers was also impressive.

Apr 23, 2025The key is to not overcook the shrimp. Watch them carefully under the broiler and they will be tender and juicy.
