About Gambas a la plancha

Gambas A La Plancha is a classic Spanish dish that showcases the simplicity and flavor of Mediterranean cuisine. This dish typically features large, fresh prawns that are seasoned with olive oil, sea salt, garlic, and a touch of paprika before being grilled or seared on a flat griddle, known as a "plancha." The result is a smoky, slightly charred exterior with tender, juicy meat inside. Rich in protein and omega-3 fatty acids, the prawns offer essential nutrients for heart and brain health. Olive oil provides healthy monounsaturated fats, while garlic contributes antioxidants. However, due to the use of added salt and oil, moderation is key for those monitoring sodium intake or calorie content. Gambas A La Plancha is perfect as a light appetizer or part of a balanced meal, reflecting the vibrant flavors and health-conscious approach of Spanish cuisine.
