Mantis Shrimp in Chili Garlic Sauce
I love seafood. I would choose them over chicken and other meat. And mantis shrimp is one of the few that I get to cook when bigger ones are available in the market. I have been curious about mantis shrimps for a long time as I have seen them on social media and in my local market so when a vendor asked if I wanted to buy, I said yes right away! Since it was my first time cooking it, I did what we love - cooked in chili garlic sauce. I had a difficult time eating them because I didn't know how to properly get the meat off of the shell. Upon checking online, I sort of got the hang of it and realized there was very little meat in small ones. The next time I was at the market and saw these babies, I bought again and my eating experience was better and I certainly enjoyed it more. I still think bigger ones would be best. Since not all of us have premade chili garlic sauce available on hand, I will be sharing something that does not use that but definitely tastes great just the same. YO
