About Penne spaghetti with prawns

Penne Spaghetti with Prawns is a delightful fusion of Italian-inspired pasta and seafood flavors. This dish features tender prawns sautéed in olive oil, garlic, and a touch of chili, served over a mix of penne and spaghetti pasta in a light tomato or cream-based sauce. A sprinkle of fresh parsley and a hint of lemon enhance the dish’s brightness. With its blend of lean protein from the prawns and the energy-boosting carbs from the pasta, this meal can be both satisfying and nourishing. Olive oil and garlic contribute heart-healthy fats and antioxidants, while fresh herbs add essential vitamins. However, it can be higher in calories due to the pasta and any creamy sauces. For a healthier twist, try whole-wheat pasta and avoid overloading on added fats or salt. Perfect for seafood lovers, this dish balances indulgence with wholesome ingredients from Mediterranean cuisine.
