About Chicken sancocho soup

Chicken Sancocho Soup is a hearty, traditional dish rooted in Latin American and Caribbean cuisine, particularly popular in countries like Colombia and the Dominican Republic. This flavorful soup is typically made with tender chicken, starchy vegetables like yucca, potatoes, and plantains, plus corn-on-the-cob and aromatic herbs such as cilantro. Often enhanced with lime juice, garlic, and onions, Sancocho boasts a rich, comforting taste. Nutrition-wise, it offers lean protein from the chicken and vitamins, fiber, and minerals from the variety of vegetables. The soup is also relatively low in fat if prepared without excessive oil or salt, making it a wholesome option. However, some versions may include fatty meats or high sodium levels depending on the recipe, so moderation is recommended. Chicken Sancocho Soup is a nourishing, flavorful way to enjoy a balanced meal influenced by diverse cultural traditions.
