Ensopado de Galinha is a traditional chicken stew from Portuguese and Brazilian cuisine, celebrated for its comforting and hearty flavors. This dish features tender chicken slow-cooked with onions, garlic, tomatoes, bell peppers, parsley, and a splash of white wine or vinegar, creating a flavorful broth. Often paired with potatoes, carrots, or rice, Ensopado de Galinha provides a balanced meal rich in protein, vitamins, and minerals from the vegetables. The chicken’s lean protein supports muscle health, while the vegetables add fiber and antioxidants. However, depending on preparation, it can be high in sodium or fat if additional oils or seasonings are used. Choosing skinless chicken and limiting added salt can make it a healthier option. This soul-warming dish embodies a rich culinary heritage while offering a nourishing choice for everyday meals.
