About Codillo al horno
Codillo al Horno is a classic Spanish dish featuring oven-roasted pork shank, celebrated for its tender texture and rich, savory flavor. Typically marinated with olive oil, garlic, paprika, and occasionally white wine, the pork is slow-cooked to perfection, ensuring a succulent and flavorful result. Root vegetables such as carrots and potatoes are often added during the roasting process, absorbing the juices and complementing the meat’s robust taste. While this dish is high in protein, providing essential amino acids, it also tends to be rich in fats, particularly saturated fats. The inclusion of olive oil adds heart-healthy monounsaturated fats, but the overall caloric content can be substantial, making portion control key. Its origins are deeply rooted in Spanish cuisine, offering a comforting and hearty meal ideal for gatherings or celebrations. Pairing Codillo al Horno with a fresh green salad or steamed vegetables adds balance and boosts its nutritional profile.
