Ingredients:


1 cup butter -- softened

1 bunch chopped fresh cilantro -- stems removed

2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger

2 teaspoons minced garlic

4 medium limes -- divided

2 medium red bell peppers -- julienne

36 medium black tiger prawns -- peeled deveined

1/2 cup dry white wine -- optional

1 teaspoon salt and pepper -- to taste

3 cups fresh spinach -- julienne
 

Preparation / Directions:


In the bowl of a food processor, combine butter, cilantro, ginger and garlic. Process until smooth. Add the juice of 3 limes and mix well. Sauté bell peppers and prawns in the cilantro-butter mixture over medium heat. The wine may be added at this point. (It helps keep the butter from scorching and makes a smoother sauce.) Cook until prawns are pink and just barely done. Season with salt and pepper. Serve on 1/2 cup of julienne spinach for each serving, drizzling the butter over the top to wilt the spinach. Garnish with lime wedges.
