- ½ cup prawns (shrimp)
- 3 tablespoon ketchup
- 2 tablespoon mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- ½ teaspoon dried Italian herbs
- 1 cup mixed salad leaves
- 2 tomatoes
- 1 avocado
- 2 burger buns
Use kitchen paper to pat dry the prawns, and arrange them on a grill.
Cook them until no longer pink - it can take up to 2 minutes per side.
Slice the buns in half, arrange the salad leaves, slices of tomatoes and avocado cut into cubes, then top with the grilled prawns.
To make the sauce, combine all the ingredients together, then drizzle the sauce over the prawns.
Serve immediately!
- This yummy burger can be enjoyed as a healthy work lunch too, since it's ready in well under 10 minutes, and it's so easy to put together.
- Prawns can be swapped for scallops or langoustines, which can be cooked in exactly the same way, the cooking time will vary slightly though. Or they can also be pan-fried, I have these delicious recipes here that would work well with the burgers too: Pan-Fried King Scallops and Breaded Scampi (Best Langoustine Recipe).
- If you use ready-cooked prawns, there is no need to grill them, so just add them to the burger, and that's all. The the prawns are frozen, thaw them beforehand.
- Add any other bits of salad you like: arugula salad, baby spinach leaves or lettuce work really well too. If you don't have avocados, you could also go for gherkins or any other pickled veggies.
