Tiger prawns are large, flavorful crustaceans popular in global cuisines, especially Southeast Asian, Mediterranean, and Australian dishes. With their distinctive striped shells, they are prized for their firm texture and mildly sweet taste. Nutritionally, tiger prawns are a rich source of lean protein, essential for muscle repair and overall growth. They also contain vital nutrients such as selenium, vitamin B12, phosphorus, and zinc, supporting immune function and energy production. Low in fat and calories, they are an excellent choice for weight-conscious diets. Additionally, tiger prawns are high in omega-3 fatty acids, promoting heart health and reducing inflammation. However, moderation is key, as they can be high in dietary cholesterol. When prepared healthily—grilled, steamed, or lightly sautéed—they make a nutritious addition to any meal. Always be mindful of sourcing, as responsible farming and fishing help preserve ocean ecosystems.
