Instructions:

1. Preparation: In a mixing bowl, combine the butter, olive oil, fresh herbs, fresh lemon juice, minced garlic cloves, shallot, and season with salt and pepper to taste.

2. Marinate: Add the prawns to the mixture, ensuring they are well coated. Allow them to marinate at room temperature for about 1 hour, stirring occasionally to ensure even marination.

3. Preheat the BBQ: Prepare your barbecue grill, heating it to medium heat.

4. Skewer the Prawns: Thread the marinated prawns onto narrow skewers, ensuring they are evenly distributed.

5. Grill: Place the skewers on the preheated barbecue grill. Grill the prawns until they are just opaque, approximately 2 minutes per side. Be careful not to overcook them, as prawns cook quickly and can become rubbery if left on the grill for too long.

6. Serve: Arrange cups of fresh lettuce on a serving platter. Once the prawns are cooked, carefully place the skewers on the platter atop the lettuce. Garnish with lemon slices for an extra burst of flavor.

7. Enjoy: Serve these succulent prawns hot off the grill as a delightful appetizer or main dish, perfect for any occasion.
