Spain has more than 8.000 kilometers (almost 5.000 miles) of coastline and more than 60 islands.
So it is not surprising that Spanish cuisine features many delicious seafood dishes.
In this article, I want to share some of my most favorite Spanish Seafood Recipes with you.
Mouth-Watering Spanish Seafood Recipes

The Shrimp Skewers are marinated with garlic, sea salt and paprika.

The saltiness and smokiness of the salmon go well with the creaminess of your cheese.
