- Yields: 24 prawns
- Ingredient Notes: Corn-free, Dairy-free, Egg-free, Peanut-free, Tree nut-free
Ingredients
- 24 large wild Alaskan prawns (21 to 25 or larger), peeled and deveined, tail on
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 cups pomegranate juice
- 1 teaspoon wasabi paste, or to taste
- 24 thin slices pancetta
- Black or white sesame seeds
Directions
Toss prawns in soy sauce and marinate in the refrigeratr for 1 hour or up to overnight.
Combine pomegranate juice and wasabi in a saucepan and boil to reduce to a thick syrup. It will thicken as it cools. Set aside.
Pat prawns dry and wrap each one in a slice of pancetta (the pancetta will stick to itself as you wrap; if it tends to flap open, secure it with a small toothpick).
Preheat oven to 375° F.
Heat a large, heavy sauté pan over medium-high heat and sear prawns on each side for 1 minute, until lightly golden. Transfer the pan to the oven and cook for 5 minutes or until prawns are opaque through.
Arrange prawns on a platter or individual plates and drizzle with sauce. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.
