King prawns, squid and crab with lime, chiili and coriander. Fresh Thai flavours work fantastically with seafood.
Method
-
Heat a frying pan until hot, then add the oil and stir fry the prawns for 1-2 minutes. Then add the squid and cook for one more minute. Add the crab meat and heat through. Remove from the heat and place in a bowl.
-
Combine all the other ingredients, except the chicory, and pour onto the seafood. Stir gently and leave to marinate for 30 minutes.
-
To serve, drain the seafood of any excess liquid and divide the mixture between the chicory boats.
