Red Prawn Stir Fry

What rhymes with corn, starts with a p and gets me really excited?

Prawns!

This simply delicious Stir-Fried Red Prawn recipe from my Eat Yourself Beautiful recipe book is the perfect protein-packed meal. Did you know prawns have as much protein as chicken and beef but nearly half the calories?

I like to serve it with a variety of greens including baby bok choy, Chinese broccoli and Choy sum. Asian greens are really high in vitamin c, iron and calcium and are more readily absorbed than traditional greens like spinach and silver beet.

Not only are prawns a beautifully vibrant pink, they’re rich in antioxidants, helping protect skin against sun damage and improving elasticity. And this is, of course, perfectly complemented by the delicious vitamin-rich greens!  Hello deliciousness.
