These were fantastic! I had some frozen green prawns that were lovely and meaty, but didn't have a lot of flavour to them, so I wanted something to give them some 'zip'. This did the trick! I marinaded for 2 hours, then cooked them briefly on other side in the frypan, before tipping the remaining marinade over the top and letting it bubble and thicken for a few minutes to make a sauce. Served over rice, it made a wonderful meal and the sauce was 'to die for'! (BTW I didn't have barbecue sauce on hand so substituted ketchup with a dash or two of worcestershire sauce). Thanks again Jewelies. We love your recipes!

This was good but not great for us. Nothing against the recipe, it was written well and the amounts were correct, it just didn't score a home run for us. Hence the 5 stars. The recipe is excellent, just not fantabulous for us. It was a bit too heavy on the hoisin sauce, a little bit too strong of BBQ sauce, just not alot of heat or flavor. Alright, just not great, but that's our opinion.
