One of the best things about seafood is its versatility. You can prepare your favorite seafood in a variety of ways: fry it, sauté it, poach it, grill it, or bake it. What's more, if consumed two to four times a week, seafood has actually been proven to improve and prevent diseases and health risks like cancer, heart disease, asthma, mental illness and depression, arthritis, and so much more. Of the various types of seafood, prawns are the easiest to incorporate into your weekly dinner menu. Check out this recipe for Garlic-Lime with Alaska Spot Prawns with Avocado Cream that's a quick, simple option for dinner.

Rinse one and a half pounds of Alaska Spot Prawns and pat dry with a paper towel. Next, in a bowl, mix one and a half Tablespoons each of salt and sugar. Place prawns in salt and sugar mixture, cover, and remove. Place prawns in a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and place in the refrigerator for 45 minutes to one hour. After, rinse and dry Alaska Spot Prawns and rinse and dry the bowl as well.

In the bowl, combine one-fourth cup olive oil, one-fourth cup of cilantro, three finely chopped garlic cloves, two teaspoons grated lime peel, and half teaspoon of black pepper. Add the Alaska Spot Prawns to mixture and coat. Thread prawns on skewers, running them through each prawn at the tail end and head end so that it looks like a "C." If you use wooden skewers, make sure you've soaked them in water for at least 30 minutes beforehand to prevent them from catching on fire.

Brush oil over the grill, lay the Alaska Spot Prawns skewers on the grill, and close the lid. Grill for three to five minutes, or until the seafood is opaque looking. Push prawns off skewer and arrange on plate.

For the Alaska Spot Prawns avocado cream sauce, simply cut up two avocados into large chunks and then mix in food processor. Add a half-cup of sour cream, two Tablespoons of mayonnaise, two Tablespoons lime juice, one teaspoon of chili powder, and half teaspoon of salt. Mix in food processor until creamy. Place avocado cream sauce on plate with Alaska Spot Prawns and serve.
