What is this food?
Chicken stew (cnd) is a home-style dish where chicken is cooked until tender, usually with a bit of sauce and vegetables. For 100g, it provides a good amount of protein, with some carbohydrates from the sauce and a small amount of fiber.
Why it matters to health
Chicken stew helps support your daily needs because it provides protein for muscle repair and satiety. It also has some fiber (about 0.6g per 100g) that can help with digestion.
On the other hand, it can be higher in sodium (about 359mg per 100g) and saturated fat (about 0.81g per 100g), especially if the recipe uses more oil or salty seasonings. Keeping portions balanced helps you enjoy the meal while staying mindful of salt and fat intake.

Healthier tips
- Portion: For your 3 full meals, aim for about 1 palm-sized serving of chicken plus rice or carbs in a reasonable amount.
- Watch sodium: Go lighter on salty seasonings (soy sauce, seasoning cubes). Taste first before adding more.
- Balance the plate: Add more non-starchy veggies (e.g., cabbage, carrots, sayote) to increase volume and fiber without adding too much salt.
- Choose cooking style: If possible, skim excess oil from the stew after cooking.
- Pair smart: If you have stew for lunch or dinner, keep snacks lighter (e.g., fruit or yogurt) so your day stays balanced.
