A locrio is a rice dish from the Dominican Republic. Similar to pilaf, jollof, and paella, it consists of seasoned rice with some kind of meat, such as chicken, Dominican salami or pork. [1]
The locrio is possibly a Dominican adaptation of paella or jollof rice. [2]
Besides chicken, locrio is also commonly made of Dominican salami, guineafowl, rabbit, pork chops, arenque (dried herring), [3] shellfish, or sardines (often called pica-pica). [4]
