Ingredients

  • 245g King Prawns
  • 255g pearl barley
  • 80g peas
  • 80g green beans
  • 20g lemon juice
  • 5g olive oil
  • 6g garlic
  • fresh parsley, thyme & black pepper
  • 10g butter
  • 5g olive oil
  • lemon wedge

Method

  1. 1

    Prep everything first: wash and trim the peas and green beans, then measure out the sauce ingredients.

  2. 2

    Simmer the pearl barley for 25-30 minutes until plump and chewy, then drain.

  3. 3

    Stir-fry the king prawns over high heat for 2-3 minutes until pink and curled.

  4. 4

    Toss the protein in lemon juice, olive oil, garlic and herbs before cooking, and squeeze over more lemon to finish.

  5. 5

    Meanwhile, steam or stir-fry the peas and green beans for 3-5 minutes until just tender with a little bite.

  6. 6

    Build the plate: pearl barley first, then the veg and king prawns, spooning over any remaining sauce. Finish with the lemon wedge.

  7. 7

    Bulking upgrade: add the butter, olive oil for extra energy-dense calories.
