Method

Make the salsa: In a bowl, gently toss together mango, avocado, onion, chilli (if using), lime juice, olive oil, and salt. Chill while cooking the prawns.
Prepare the prawns: Pat prawns dry with paper towel. In a large pan, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add garlic and chilli, sauté until fragrant (about 30 seconds).
Cook the prawns: Add prawns, season with salt, pepper, and lime zest. Cook 2–3 minutes per side until pink and slightly golden. Squeeze over lime juice and toss in coriander.
Serve: Pile prawns onto a platter with the salsa on the side, or serve in soft tortillas for prawn tacos. Garnish with extra lime wedges and herbs.

Serving Suggestion:
Perfect with a chilled glass of Sauvignon Blanc, a crisp summer salad, or spooned over fluffy coconut rice.
