Caldo de Pollo, or Mexican chicken soup, is a comforting dish rooted in traditional Latin American cuisine. This hearty soup typically features tender chicken pieces simmered with vibrant vegetables like carrots, potatoes, zucchini, and celery in a savory broth. Enhanced with aromatics such as onion, garlic, and cilantro, and often accompanied by a side of rice or warm tortillas, it’s both flavorful and nourishing. As a wholesome meal, Caldo de Pollo is packed with lean protein from the chicken, fiber and vitamins from the vegetables, and electrolytes from the broth, making it a great choice for recovery or hydration. While generally healthy, the sodium content in the broth can be high depending on preparation, so opting for low-sodium ingredients is recommended. Its versatility allows for adjustments to suit dietary preferences, making it an accessible and satisfying dish for many.
