Want to try a delicious seafood snack without paying the earth? Try the Garlic Popcorn Prawns from Coles supermarkets.
It’s Friday night here in Australia, and in the Hawkings house, it’s get your own night, meaning everyone eats what they want. Yesterday, we went to the supermarket to pick up some stuff and picked up Garlic Popcorn Prawns from Coles.
This is the perfect feast because it’s the seafood alternative to KFC’s Popcorn Chicken. Popcorn Prawns are quick and straightforward; you can choose to use any sauce you want or just eat them without.
According to the product’s box, place the popcorn prawns on a baking paper-lined tray and place the oven at 180 degrees for 15 minutes. We placed our air fryer at 160 degrees for 17 minutes.
For $5, you’re not getting much of a full meal. The popcorn prawns are a snack and cannot substitute for a full bowl. You can serve them in a seafood basket, place them in a salad and drizzle with garlic aioli. The choice is up to you.
What we’re amazed at is how amazing they taste! We love Popcorn chicken; we could eat Popcorn Prawns all day if we were allowed. They are much larger than the average piece of Popcorn Chicken and many tasters, and the best part? It doesn’t make us feel sick if we eat too much!
Would We Buy Popcorn Prawns Again?
Would we buy it again? Ah… yeah! We just wish it was more filling, but for a snack that can be cooked in the air fryer, we’re just happy to have tried it. If we had to buy it again, we’d buy two boxes, even if it is more money.
We might even devise a recipe or five on a way to use them. We’re not sure yet. But watch this space.
