- Ingredients
- ½ lemon

- 5 Tbsps breadcrumbs
- 2 sprigs flat-leaf parsley
- 1 small garlic clove
- 6 King prawn (each about 1.75 oz)

Rinse the lemon under hot water, pat dry and finely grate 1 teaspoon zest. Finely grate the cheese. Mix both with the breadcrumbs in a bowl.
Rinse the parsley, shake dry, pluck leaves and finely chop. Peel the garlic and finely chop. Mix both with the breadcrumb mixture.
Shell and devein the prawns, leaving tails intact. Season prawns with salt and pepper.
Whisk the egg in a bowl. Dredge the prawns in flour, dip in egg and then coat with the breadcrumbs, leaving tail uncoated. Press crumbs firmly to adhere. Place the prawns on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake in a preheated oven at 450°F until the crust is golden brown and prawns are cooked through, about 10-12 minutes.
Meanwhile halve the avocado and remove the pit and peel. Cut flesh into very thin slices.
Divide avocado slices between 2 plates. Season with salt and pepper. Squeeze lemon.
Whisk 1 tablespoon lemon juice with the honey and season with salt and pepper. Slowly add oil, whisking until combined. Drizzle avocado slices with the lemon dressing. Cut sprouts from the roots and sprinkle over the avocado. Arrange prawns on top and serve immediately.

Healthy, because
In addition to easily digestible protein, shrimp provides plenty of vitamin E and iodine. These vital substances help to protect the cells. The soft flesh of the avocado also has a lot to offer, especially highly unsaturated fatty acids and important vitamins.
Even smarter
If you want to save fat calories, leave out the olive oil in the dressing for the avocado or use only half of it.
