Spicy Jellyfish Salad (Secret to GOOD SKIN)

Spicy Jellyfish Salad

Are you looking for a recipe that is low in calories and fat, high in protein, DELICIOUS, and SUPER good for your skin?

Well, I got you because my Spicy Jellyfish Salad is refreshing, nutritious, and extremely tasty! Jellyfish Salad is a popular share dish at weddings and Asian banquets. It is also many Asians’ secret weapon when it comes to youthful, glowing skin since it is rich in collagen! 

Jellyfish Salad

Jellyfish is a popular healthy ingredient in Asian culture since it has a variety of health benefits!

It is low in calories and fat (only 21 calories for 58 grams!) but high in protein, antioxidants, and nutrients. You can often find Jellyfish in Asian skincare products since it is packed with collagen and antioxidants. When eating jellyfish, not only can it help with your skin, it is also super tasty! On its own, it doesn’t have much flavor, and the texture is slightly crunchy, similar to black fungus and bird’s nest. This is why the seasoning of jellyfish plays an essential role when it comes to preparing jellyfish recipes. 

Spicy Jellyfish Salad Healthy

My Spicy Jellyfish Salad is spicy, tangy, savory, and refreshing. I like to add shredded chicken and sliced cucumber.

I honestly forgot about this recipe for a while until my best friend and I was shopping for healthy snacks one day, and she recommended jellyfish to me. There are many jellyfish forms such as dehydrated and fresh, but I like using instant packages since it is individual portions and ready to go. Instant Jellyfish often comes with seasoning already, but I prefer to use my own, which is healthier and more delicious. I am using Watson brand Jellyfish salad that you can find at your local Asian grocery market (T&T), usually near the tofu section. 

How to cook jellyfish

Homemade Chili oil is always my secret weapon when it comes to quick and tasty recipes. I always have jars of my Homemade Chili Oil ready to go in my fridge because it will save you so much time, and I promise it is 100x better than any store-bought chili oil.

Healthy Asian Recipes

  2. Shred the chicken once the chicken has cooled off

    I can’t cook spicy (hubby and baby both won’t eat anything spicy) but this looks DELICOUS. Is there anything I can replace the chili oil with? Or can I just skip it altogether?

About Me
Hi! I am Tiffy and I am a HUGE foodie. I love to cook, I love to eat, and I love sharing what I love with the world.
I was born in Taiwan, a country with some of the best street food in the world. When I think back to my childhood, I remember all the fantastic restaurants my dad brought me to when I was young. You see, my family is also huge foodies; we use to wander around night markets every weekend, skip the last period in class to try out new restaurants, and every summer, we would travel around Taiwan exploring all the new “must try” dishes around the country.
