Mussel Peruvian Style, or "Choritos a la Chalaca," is a vibrant seafood dish originating from Peru’s coastal cuisine. This tantalizing appetizer features fresh mussels crowned with a tangy mixture of diced onions, tomatoes, corn, and cilantro, marinated in lime juice and spiced with chili peppers. Packed with lean protein, mussels are a great source of omega-3 fatty acids, iron, and B vitamins, supporting brain and heart health while being low in calories. The addition of vegetables and lime juice adds fiber, antioxidants, and vitamin C. However, the dish can be high in sodium if heavily salted, so portion mindfulness is recommended. This unique combination of flavors and nutrients makes Mussel Peruvian Style a light, refreshing, and health-conscious option for seafood lovers seeking a taste of Peru’s dynamic cuisine.
