About Prawn chilli

Prawn Chilli is a flavorful dish rooted in Indo-Chinese cuisine, blending Chinese cooking techniques with Indian spices. It typically features fresh prawns sautéed in a tangy chili-based sauce made with garlic, ginger, soy sauce, green chilies, and a hint of vinegar. Often accompanied by bell peppers, onions, and scallions, this dish strikes a balance between spicy, savory, and slightly sweet flavors. Prawns are a lean source of protein and rich in omega-3 fatty acids, making them heart-healthy and low in calories. However, the high sodium content from soy sauce and added oils can be a concern for those watching their salt intake or trying to maintain balanced cholesterol levels. Prawn Chilli is best enjoyed as part of a nutritious meal when paired with steamed vegetables or whole grains to offset its indulgent nature.
