About Empanadilla de atun

Empanadilla de Atún is a traditional Spanish dish, popular in tapas culture and homemade recipes alike. This savory turnover features a flaky, golden pastry shell filled with a flavorful mixture of tuna, onions, tomato sauce, garlic, and peppers, often seasoned with paprika and olive oil. Its origins trace back to Spain's love for combining fresh Mediterranean ingredients into easy-to-share dishes. While tuna offers a good source of protein and omega-3 fatty acids, contributing to heart health, the pastry is typically made from refined flour and can be high in fats, depending on preparation methods. Opting for baking instead of frying can reduce its calorie count and fat content, making it a slightly healthier choice. Empanadilla de Atún strikes a balance of comforting indulgence and nutritious benefits, representing a delicious snapshot of Spanish cuisine.
