Canja

description Canja Overview

Canja de galinha is a traditional Portuguese chicken and rice soup that has become a staple comfort food across Portugal, Brazil, Macau, and other lusophone regions. It is prepared by boiling chicken pieces in water with onions, garlic, and occasionally carrots, resulting in a flavorful broth. Rice is added to the stock and cooked until soft, often thickening the soup slightly over time. Widely regarded as a home remedy for colds and digestive illnesses, the soup is valued for its mild flavor and restorative properties, particularly for children and the elderly.
