Preparation
To prepare the prawns in the oven, start by cleaning the prawns: remove the legs of the prawns, remove the carapace, or the shell that covers the prawn, taking care not to remove either the head or the tail, to be left attached to the prawn as a decoration. Now remove the internal intestine: cut the back of the shrimp with a small knife and remove the dark filament by gently pulling it with the blade of a knife or a toothpick. Wash the parsley tuft and chop it very finely. Squeeze the lemon juice, then prepare the citronette that will be used to flavor the baked prawns: put the parsley in a small bowl, pour the lemon juice, the Il Cavallino Special Edition olive oil and finish with salt and pepper to taste. Emulsify the sauce well and set aside. Take a rectangular baking dish, place the cleaned prawns next to each other and flavor them with the citronette poured directly on the crustaceans, cover the prawns with a sheet of parchment paper that will be used to keep the humidity inside, so that remain tender. Bake in a preheated static oven at 200 ° for 10-12 minutes. When cooked, take your prawns out of the oven and serve them hot!
