Are king prawns the best to use for this recipe?

We think so - they are bigger than tiger prawns and rich in flavour with moist, medium-firm flesh. Leave them whole rather than chopping them, to make the most of their attractive appearance!

Is this chipotle prawns recipe healthy?

Yes it is! Prawns are a great source of high quality protein, and provide some of the most important vitamins and minerals that make up a healthy diet. They are surprisingly low in calories and are made up of extremely healthy cholesterol. Just go easy on the butter sauce!

How should I reheat leftover cooked chipotle prawns?

You can reheat them in the oven, microwave or on the hob. Ensure they are piping hot before serving and only reheat them once.
