Seafood in Tomato Chilli Sauce. Seafood dishes are best when prepared from fresh ingredients. Chinese restaurants often display live fish and other seafood in tanks outside, their shop fronts, so that diners can select the seafood for their meal. Seafood is usually cooked with sauces that complement the natural flavors. This deliciously spicy stir fry makes an impressive dinner party dish served over plain white rice or sizzling rice crisps.
