About Garlic butter prawns

Garlic Butter Prawns are a delectable dish originating from Western cuisine, often celebrated for its rich flavors and simplicity. The dish features succulent prawns sautéed in a buttery garlic sauce, typically accented with fresh herbs like parsley and a splash of lemon juice for brightness. Prawns are a low-calorie source of protein and rich in essential nutrients such as selenium, vitamin B12, and omega-3 fatty acids, which support heart health and immunity. The garlic adds antioxidants and antimicrobial properties, while the lemon enhances digestion. However, the butter in the sauce contributes saturated fat, which should be consumed in moderation for heart health. This dish pairs well with steamed vegetables, rice, or pasta, offering a satisfying meal that can fit into various balanced diets. Adjusting the butter and seasoning can make it even more health-conscious without compromising its savory appeal.
