About Pollo cocido

Pollo Cocido, or boiled chicken, is a simple and versatile dish found in many Latin American cuisines. Prepared by simmering chicken in water with aromatic herbs, spices, and vegetables like onion, garlic, and celery, it is both flavorful and nutritious.

Rich in vitamins and minerals from the added vegetables, it supports overall health when prepared with minimal salt. Pollo Cocido is often used as a base for soups, salads, or shredded for tacos and sandwiches. However, any added oils, excessive salt, or high-calorie side dishes could affect its healthfulness. With a clean cooking method and basic seasonings, Pollo Cocido remains a wholesome option tailored to fit a balanced diet.
