What is this Spanish dish?

Fideuà is a traditional Valencian seafood dish from Spain, similar to paella but made with short strands of vermicelli noodles (fideos) instead of rice. The dish typically includes a variety of seafood such as shrimp, mussels, squid, and sometimes fish, along with garlic, tomatoes, onions, and spices like saffron and paprika. The fideos are toasted in olive oil until golden brown before adding the broth and seafood, allowing the noodles to absorb the flavors as they cook. Fideuà is cooked slowly to achieve a flavorful and slightly crispy texture, similar to paella, and is served hot with aioli (garlic mayonnaise) on the side. It is a popular dish along the Mediterranean coast of Spain, celebrated for its rich seafood flavors and unique preparation with noodles.
