The Best Seafood Dishes In Spain
1 Paella de Mariscos
The most famous Spanish seafood dish is, of
course, paella de mariscos, or seafood paella. It
originated in the Valencian place of Spain, but it
can be found all over the country. The most typical
types of seafood added to paella include mussels,
shrimp or prawns, and it’s all flavored with saffron
strands, paprika, and garlic.
2. Bullit de Peix
It is a fish stew typically from Ibiza. It’s made from
at least three species of fish, often including
scorpionfish, sea bream, John Dory, grouper, and
monkfish. The fish is boiled with sofrito (a mix of
tomatoes, onions, peppers, and garlic), herbs and
spices, and it is eaten as a first course.
3. Dorada a la Sal
Originally from the Murcia region of Spain, this
dish can also be found all over Andalucia. Made
using sea bream, the fish is baked in a crust of salt,
which seals in the juices and fish oils.
4. Pulpo a la Feria
Galicianstyle octopus, also called pulpo a la
Gallega, is one of the best octopus dishes in the
country. The octopus is boiled and then placed on
top of thinly sliced boiled or fried potatoes and
sprinkled with paprika. Traditionally, it is served
on a wooden plate.
5. Suquet
A typical Catalan dish, suquet is a type of fish stew
with plenty of juice or liquid. It can be made from
a variety of different fish and shellfish and usually
contains saffron and almonds.
6. Tonyina a l’Evissenca
‘Tonyina a l’eivissenca‘ means Ibizan tuna, and it is
one of the most traditional dishes on the island of
Ibiza. The tuna is cooked with pine nuts, raisins,
eggs, spices, lemon juice, and dry white wine to
make a kind of stew.
7. Peix Sec
Made by local fisherman, peix sec means dried fish.
It is usually made from a spiced and seasoned fish,
