Ingredients

2 x 180g packs Extra Large King Prawns
5 limes
1 tsp sea salt
1 orange, juice
½ red onion, finely chopped
¼ tsp smoked paprika
25g pack coriander, finely chopped (reserve a few leaves to garnish)
1 tbsp rapeseed oil
2 x packs Perfectly Ripe Avocados 2s, peeled, halved, stoned and cut into 2cm chunks
275g pack baby plum tomatoes, halved

Method

Put the prawns in a bowl. Add the juice of 1 lime and half the salt, stir and set aside for 5 minutes. Meanwhile, add the juice of 3 limes to a bowl and mix with the orange juice, onion, paprika, coriander and the remaining salt. Set aside.
Place a frying pan over a high heat and add the oil. Tip the prawns into the pan and cook, tossing regularly, for 5 minutes until pink and opaque. Transfer to a bowl with the avocado and tomatoes, then pour over the dressing and toss to combine.
Cut the remaining lime into 6 wedges. Divide the cocktail between 6 glasses or small bowls, and garnish with coriander leaves and a lime wedge. Serve immediately or cover and keep in the fridge until ready to serve.
