Ingredients
- 2 large crayfish
- 50 g garlic butter
- 2 tsp finely minced garlic
- Salt
Instructions
- Place a barbecue over high heat.
- Using a sharp chef’s knife, split the crayfish down the centre to create two halves. Spread the crayfish meat with the garlic butter and garlic. Season with a pinch of salt.
- Place the crayfish, shell side down on the barbecue grill. Cook for 10-15 minutes, or until the crayfish meat turns opaque. When the crayfish meat is white and firm, flip the crayfish meat side down and cook for a further 1-2 minutes, or until slightly charred.
