About Peito de frango estufado

Peito de Frango Estufado, a classic dish from Portuguese cuisine, features tender chicken breast simmered in a flavorful blend of onions, garlic, tomatoes, and olive oil. Often seasoned with fresh herbs like parsley or bay leaves, this hearty, comforting meal represents the rich culinary traditions of Portugal. Its foundation of lean chicken breast provides a high protein, low-fat option, supporting muscle health and satiety. The inclusion of olive oil adds heart-healthy monounsaturated fats, while tomatoes contribute vitamins like C and potassium. However, preparation with excessive oil or added salt can increase its calorie count and sodium levels, making moderation key. Commonly paired with rice or vegetables, Peito de Frango Estufado can be part of a balanced, nutritious meal when made with mindful ingredient choices.
