GARLIC & CHILI PRAWNS

Garlic & Chili Prawns image

I've always love crustacean dishes...especially prawns. In my hometown in Davao City, Philippines, there's one famous seafood resto that offers the best garlic prawns. I improved the dish by making it more spicy by adding...red and green chili peppers for that "kick".
