Arroz Seco, meaning "dry rice," is a savory Latin American dish, often associated with Peruvian cuisine. This flavorful meal typically consists of white rice cooked with a blend of spices, herbs, chicken or seafood, and vegetables like peppers, peas, or carrots. Tomato-based sauces and garlic are common ingredients that enhance its rich taste. Arroz Seco is traditionally enjoyed as a hearty main course and may include sides like plantains or salad for a balanced plate. While it provides a good source of carbohydrates from the rice and nutrients from the vegetables, it can be high in sodium depending on the seasoning and broth used. Choosing lean proteins and controlling oil can make it a healthier option. It’s a versatile dish that can be tailored for various dietary needs while retaining its robust flavors and cultural charm.
