This vibrant Southwestern prawn soft tacos recipe is a fantastic choice for those seeking a light yet satisfying high-protein meal. The prawns are marinated in a zesty blend of lime juice, honey and aromatic spices, ensuring every bite is bursting with fresh, coastal flavours. Paired with a charred corn and tomato relish, these tacos offer a delightful contrast of textures and a natural sweetness that perfectly complements the warmth of the Cajun seasoning.
Ideal for a quick midweek dinner or a nutritious weekend lunch, these tacos are as healthy as they are delicious. Using whole-wheat tortillas and lean prawns keeps the fat content low while providing a substantial boost of protein. Serve them with an extra squeeze of lime and some freshly chopped coriander for a colourful, homemade dish that feels truly special.

1/2 teaspoons finely chopped garlic
1 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon chopped fresh coriander
1/2 cup freshly squeezed lime juice
1/2 teaspoons Jamaican jerk or Cajun seasoning
1/8 teaspoons paprika

2 ears corn (or 240ml canned or frozen and thawed)

4 lowfat whole-wheat tortillas

How to make Southwestern Prawns Soft Tacos
Combine marinade ingredients with 60ml water and season with salt. Add prawns; refrigerate 1 hour. To make relish, cut corn kernels off cob. Lightly spray a sturdy skillet with cooking spray and heat over moderately high heat. (Avoid Teflon pans, which should not be used when cooking at such high temperatures.) Stir-fry corn until golden brown. Pour corn into a bowl and add remaining relish ingredients; season with salt. Remove prawns and reserve marinade. Lightly spray the same skillet with cooking spray and heat on high until very hot. Toss in a few prawns at a time and cook until just opaque; remove prawns. Pour marinade into pan, bring to boil and boil for 2 minutes; lower heat and simmer until thick. Put 4 prawns on each tortilla; top with corn relish and marinade sauce. Sprinkle with coriander and spring onion.
