Zamburiñas a la Gallega
Galician Scallops (in Shell)
Yes, keto as served. About 5g net carbs per serving.
What it is
Smaller, tender scallops (zamburiñas) from Galicia, typically cooked and served in their shells. They are usually prepared with olive oil, garlic, a splash of white wine, and often finely diced cured ham (jamón Serrano).
Key ingredients
Zamburiñas (small scallops), olive oil, garlic, white wine, diced jamón Serrano, parsley, sea salt.
Optional tweaks
Confirm no flour is used to thicken the sauce, and the white wine is used sparingly for flavor (most alcohol cooks off, residual sugar is minimal). Ensure no carb-heavy accompaniments.
Watch out for
Flour-based sauces, overly sweet wine reductions, hidden sugars in preparation, carb-heavy garnishes.
