Galinhada is a traditional Brazilian dish that beautifully combines tender chicken, aromatic rice, and an array of vibrant spices. Originating from the state of Goiás, this hearty meal showcases the rich flavors of Brazilian cuisine. Typically made with saffron or turmeric for a golden hue, it’s often enriched with fresh vegetables like bell peppers and peas. While it's a comforting and satisfying dish, be mindful of its high carbohydrate content from the rice. However, the chicken provides a good source of protein, making Galinhada a balanced choice for a family feast. Enjoy this taste of Brazil with a healthy twist!
