Galeto, or roasted spring chicken, has roots in Italian immigrant cuisine, particularly from the Veneto region. These immigrants brought their poultry farming knowledge and simple, flavorful roasting techniques to southern Brazil in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Over time, the dish was adapted with local Brazilian herbs and spices, evolving into the distinct style found at Primo Canto.

The dish is characterized by its savory, slightly herbaceous, and subtly spicy profile. The marinade penetrates the chicken, resulting in a deep, rich flavor that is enhanced by the roasting process.
The primary flavors come from a blend of fresh herbs such as parsley, thyme, and rosemary, along with garlic, black pepper, and often a touch of paprika or chili powder for a subtle kick. Lemon juice or white wine vinegar is frequently incorporated for acidity, which helps tenderize the meat and brighten the overall flavor. The roasting process caramelizes the skin, adding a layer of smoky sweetness that complements the savory marinade.
