Ingredients

Salad

  • 150g frozen corn

To Serve

  • 2 tortilla wraps

Steps

  1. Preheat oven to 220°C. Preheat BBQ hot plate to medium-high (if using). Cook corn. Heat a drizzle of oil in a fry-pan on medium-high heat. Cook corn with chipotle spices for 2-3 minutes, until golden. Transfer corn to a bowl and reserve pan. Alternatively, do this on the BBQ.
  2. Warm tortillas. Wrap tortillas in foil and place in oven for about 12 minutes to warm through. Alternatively, do this on the BBQ.
  3. Prep salad. In a bowl, toss tomato, capsicum and lettuce with corn and a drizzle of oil and vinegar.
  4. Cook prawns. Heat a drizzle of oil in reserved pan on high heat. Add prawns, garlic, butter and a pinch of salt and cook for about 3 minutes, until golden and just cooked through. Alternatively, do this on the BBQ.
  5. Serve tortillas topped with salad, prawns, sweetcorn aioli and chipotle sauce.
