step 1
Heat the oil in a frying pan over a high heat and cook the prawns for 1 minute 30 seconds on one side, then flip over. Add the garlic and chilli, and cook for another 1 minute 30 seconds.

step 2
Remove the pan from the heat, season with salt and add the parsley. Toast the bread with a little oil in a separate frying pan. Add the lemon half to the pan, cut-side down, and cook until the bread is deeply golden and the lemon slightly charred. Squeeze the charred lemon over the prawns and serve.
