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.

The name "a banda" refers to the way it is served, with the main ingredients separated from the rice. The main ingredients of the dish are usually firm-fleshed fish such as hake, monkfish, or cod, which are cooked in the broth and then set aside once cooked. It is a true delight for rice and seafood lovers. Perfect to enjoy in a family meal or with friends.
