Arroz de Pato, or Duck Rice, is a traditional Portuguese dish celebrated for its rich flavor and comforting texture. The dish features duck cooked until tender, often simmered with onions, garlic, and bay leaves, then shredded and combined with seasoned rice infused with duck stock. Additional ingredients like chouriço or smoked sausage enhance its depth of flavor, while spices such as paprika add warmth. The dish is typically baked to achieve a crispy top layer. Arroz de Pato is a hearty meal, offering protein from the duck and energy from the rice. Duck is a rich source of iron, vitamins, and healthy fats, though moderation is key due to its higher fat content compared to other meats. While flavorful, the use of sausage and oils can increase sodium and saturated fat levels. Balance this indulgent dish with fresh vegetables for added nutrients and a healthier meal experience.
