I will get a lot more UK recipes by putting in scampi.

when I did some (actually shitload) of waitering while doing my studies I used to work at a restaurant that served Langoustines, they were bigger than prawns and smaller than the lobsters we used to serve
if I remember correctly the chefs used to butterfly-grill them (on a flat-surface grill) and serve them with lemon-butter or garlic-butter sauce, basically the same as the prawns ;)
