About Almejas a la plancha

Almejas A La Plancha, or grilled clams, is a simple and flavorful dish rooted in Spanish coastal cuisine. Fresh clams are cooked on a flat grill, often with olive oil, garlic, parsley, and a squeeze of lemon, allowing their natural briny flavors to shine. This dish is low in calories and rich in protein, making it a healthy seafood option. Clams are also a good source of iron, vitamin B12, and omega-3 fatty acids, which support heart health and brain function. The olive oil adds healthy monounsaturated fats, while the garlic delivers potential antioxidant benefits. However, sodium can be a concern if heavily seasoned, so moderation is advised. Typically served as a tapa or appetizer, Almejas A La Plancha offers a nutritious and light taste of Mediterranean tradition.
