Grilled prawn skewers with garlic and parsley
Light prawn skewers with garlic fit perfectly into Phase 1 thanks to low carbohydrates.
Grilled prawn skewers with garlic and parsley are ready in a jiffy and look instantly festive. The prawns get a light caramelised edge on the hot grill, whilst garlic, chilli flakes and fresh parsley deliver an aromatic, Mediterranean flavour. A light yet distinctly protein-rich dish that's perfect for warm days.
In Phase 1 of your protein diet, these skewers really come into their own. Prawns deliver around 36 grams of pure protein and contain barely any carbohydrates, making them ideal for a low-carb approach. The combination of plenty of protein and few carbs keeps you satisfied for longer and supports muscle mass retention during this starting phase.
Lovely with a fresh salad of rocket and cucumber, or with grilled courgette and a spoonful of homemade sugar-free aioli. An extra lemon slice completes the plate and keeps everything light and fresh.
