Marinade - Combine all the ingredients in a large bowl. Add the prawns and turn to coat well.

Thread prawns, each wrapped around a slice of chorizo, on to skewers. This can get a little messy but well worth it.

Heat a little oil in a large sauté pan and cook the prawns until golden and just cooked through, about 1–2 minutes each side. Makes 10 skewers.

Green Sauce - Place all the ingredients in a food processor and process until smooth and bright green. Makes about ¾ cup.
