QuestionI have got tiger prawns cooked and peeled in the freezer, what is the best way to thaw them, and how long do I heat them before eating?Community AnswerYou'll want to thaw the prawns in the refrigerator only. It's just too risky to leave them on the counter. I would heat the thawed prawns in a skillet over low-medium heat just until warm. You don't want to overcook them, and shrimp will overcook faster than anything else I can think of.
