Bahia-style Moqueca prawn stew

This moqueca is a creamy prawn stew built on a base of coconut milk and tomatoes, brightened with lime. The prawns get a quick marinade in lime, salt, and garlic before joining the simmering sauce. You'll build the sauce by sautéing aromatics and spices, then let it reduce to deepen its character. The prawns cook quickly in the hot liquid, turning white when they're done. Serve it with rice and a generous sprinkle of fresh coriander.
