Pan seared Oregano Butter Prawns

When I want something that cooks fast and taste good, one of my choice will be prawns/shrimps. Simple seasoning and you will get tasty prawns.


While waiting for the bread to finish baking, I took out some prawns and was thinking how to prepare it since the main course for the evening is Wagyu beef stew. Looking through the spice cabinet, I took out 5 ingredients -
1 tsp onion powder 
1 tsp garlic powder 
1 tsp oregano flakes
Salt & black pepper, to taste 

Method
1. Remove the shell and deveined the prawns. Leave the tail on. 
2. Mix the onion powder, garlic powder and oregano flakes together. 
3. Coat the prawns well in this spice mixture.
4. Heat pan with 1 tbsp of butter and olive oil. Once pan is well heated, place the prawns in the pan. Do not overcrowd them in the pan. Once the prawns change colour, grind some salt and black pepper onto the prawns. When the prawns turns orange on the side facing down to the pan, turn the prawns to the other side. Remember not overcook it.  
5. Dish up and serve. 

It still taste good when it's cold.
