Gigantes Plaki is a traditional Greek dish that showcases the simplicity and richness of Mediterranean cuisine. This flavorful recipe consists of giant butter beans, known as "gigantes," slow-cooked in a vibrant tomato sauce with olive oil, garlic, onions, and fresh herbs like parsley and dill. Often baked until tender, it can be served as a main course or a side dish. Packed with fiber, plant-based protein, and antioxidants, Gigantes Plaki is both nutritious and heart-healthy, thanks to its reliance on wholesome ingredients and a generous dose of olive oil, a staple of the Mediterranean diet. However, those watching their fat intake should be mindful of the oil content. This dish is typically vegan, making it suitable for various dietary preferences, and it exemplifies the balance of flavors and nutrients that Greek cuisine is celebrated for.
