BBQ seafood with lemon garlic butter
Method
- Place all the ingredients for the butter into a bowl. Mix with a spatula until evenly combined and smooth.
- Place a piece of baking paper on the bench and spoon butter mix into a log shape. Roll into a cylinder and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
- Heat BBQ to high heat and toss prawns in olive oil. Grill prawns in batches until charred and just cooked (1-2 mins each side). Place the scallops shell side down onto the BBQ and cover with the lid. Cook for 3-4 mins or until cooked through, turning the scallops (not the shells) halfway through.
- Carefully remove the scallops in the shells and prawns and place on a serving platter.
- Cut half of the log of flavoured butter into slices and melt. Generously spoon over the BBQ seafood and serve hot. The remaining butter can be kept in the fridge for a week and used to enhance your next meal.
More Tips
- Any seafood of your choice would work wonderfully.
- Try adding a few slices of this butter to steamed vegetables for an added flavour hit.

Dry roast chicken?
Avoid a dry chicken by stuffing some flavoured butter under the skin before roasting. Simply ease your fingers under the skin of the chicken breast to create a pocket (without breaking through) and fill it with softened flavoured butter. The butter bastes and flavours the chicken as it cooks leaving you with a moist and tender roast!
