It is a dish of soupy rice characterized by its intense and delicious flavor. The base of Arroz a Banda is a fish and seafood broth, prepared with ingredients such as the heads and bones of white fish, fresh seafood (such as prawns, langoustines, or mussels), onion, tomato, garlic, and various spices.

It is a true delight for rice and seafood lovers. Perfect to enjoy in a family meal or with friends.
