About Chicken pochero

Chicken Pochero is a classic Filipino stew known for its blend of hearty ingredients and rich flavors. This comforting dish features chicken, saba bananas, potatoes, carrots, cabbage, green beans, and garbanzo beans, slow-cooked in a tomato-based sauce. Additional elements like chorizo and pechay (bok choy) elevate its depth and character. Originating from Spanish-inspired Filipino cuisine, Pochero is a fusion of flavors suited to family meals and gatherings. Nutritionally, it provides a balance of protein from the chicken and fiber from the vegetables, contributing to satiety and digestive health. However, depending on preparation, the inclusion of processed chorizo can increase sodium and saturated fat levels, which may be a concern when consumed frequently. Opting for skinless chicken and reducing added oils can make it a more heart-healthy dish while retaining its traditional appeal. A serving of Chicken Pochero showcases wholesome ingredients and cultural richness in every bite.
