Number Of Ingredients 5

Spiced Tomato Saltsa
24 jumbo prawns or shrimp, heads on, peeled, deveined, and tails intact
1 1/2 tablespoons Hot Pepper Mix and Hot Pepper Bread Crumb Mix
Coarse salt
6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Spread enough of the salsa to evenly cover the bottom of a 16-by-10-by-2-inch baking dish. Season prawns with hot pepper mix and salt and place them, in a single layer, slightly overlapping, over the saltsa. Sprinkle with pepper-breadcrumb mixture. Drizzle with half of the olive oil and transfer to oven.
  • Roast until prawns become pinkish-white in color and breadcrumbs are golden brown. Remove from oven and drizzle with remaining olive oil; serve immediately.
