About Ruz wi djaj
Ruz Wi Djaj is a savory rice and chicken dish popular in Middle Eastern and North African cuisine, particularly in Morocco and surrounding regions. It combines tender, spiced chicken with fragrant, seasoned rice, often enriched with onions, garlic, and an aromatic blend of spices like turmeric, cinnamon, and cumin. Variations may include vegetables, nuts, or dried fruits for added texture and flavor. This dish is nutrient-rich, offering lean protein from the chicken and essential vitamins from the spices and any added vegetables. The rice provides sustained energy through complex carbohydrates. However, the healthiness of Ruz Wi Djaj depends on preparation, as using excessive oil or fatty chicken cuts can increase calorie content. Opting for skinless chicken and moderate seasoning enhances its nutritional profile, making it a wholesome and satisfying meal enjoyed by families worldwide.
