Steps:
- Cut bugs in half lenthwise and clean out the 'yuck'.
- Rinse well under running water, ensuring meat stays in shell.
- Drain well and place on platter meat side up.
- Season to taste with freshly cracked salt and pepper.
- Melt butter being careful not to burn.
- Put the zest of one lime into the melted butter, squeeze half the lime over the bugs, half into the butter.
- Add garlic and finely diced chillis to the melted butter, heat gently to combine flavours.
- Spoon butter mixture evenly over bugs reserving 1/4 of the mixture to spoon over just before serving.
- Broil under griller for 15 minutes or until bugs are opaque. Cooking time will vary with your oven.
- Spoon reserved butter mixture over hot bugs to serve, and sprinkle with finely chopped fresh parsley.
- Serve with toasted turkish bread and extra melted butter for dipping.
- Wouldn't hurt to have the Chardonnay on ice, either.

- Cut the heads off the bugs, then use kitchen scissors to cut through the shell around each side of the tail so you can open the shell. Remove the tail flesh in one piece.
- Melt the butter in a frying pan and sauté the onion and garlic over medium heat for 2 minutes, or until the onion has softened. Add the wine and cook for 4 minutes, or until reduced by half. Stir in the cream, mustard and lemon juice and simmer for 5–6 minutes, or until the liquid has reduced to almost half.
- Add the prawns and cook for 1 minute, then add the bug meat and cook for another minute, or until opaque. Add the fish and cook for 2 minutes, or until cooked through (the flesh will flake easily when tested with a fork). Finally, add the scallops and cook for 1 minute, or until all the seafood is cooked.
