Did you know that
In this recipe we suggest the use of garlic only to rub the pan: this is to avoid overdoing the intense aroma of garlic.
In any case, those who love its flavor can chop it together with the parsley and add it directly to the pulp of the prawns.

Those who wish, can instead avoid pepper and replace it with dry or fresh chilli.- Place the pan in the oven and bake at 180 ° C for 15-20 minutes, until golden brown.
