BBQ Seafood with Lemon Garlic Butter

Ingredients:

Lemon Garlic Butter

185g Western Star Salted Butter, softened

2 cloves of garlic, finely chopped

1 tbsp lemon zest

1 tbsp parsley, finely chopped

Pepper

Seafood

12 scallops, with the shells on

24 large raw prawns

2 tbsp olive oil

Method:

Lemon Garlic Butter

Place all the ingredients for the butter into a bowl. Mix with a spatula until evenly combined and smooth
Place a piece of baking paper on the bench and spoon butter mix into a log shape. Roll into a cylinder and refrigerate for at least 2 hours

Seafood

Heat BBQ to high heat and toss prawns in olive oil. Grill prawns in batches until charred and just cooked (1-2 mins each side). Place the scallops shell side down onto the BBQ and cover with the lid. Cook for 3-4 mins or until cooked through, turning the scallops (not the shells) halfway through
Carefully remove the scallops in the shells and prawns and place on a serving platter
Cut half of the log of flavoured butter into slices and melt. Generously spoon over the BBQ seafood and serve hot. The remaining butter can be kept in the fridge for a week and used to enhance your next meal
