Herb-Roasted Chicken with Vegetables

Healthy Fact of the Day

You can poach chicken to enhance its moisture and flavor while keeping the fat content low. To do this, place the chicken in a pot or skillet with a flavorful cooking liquid such as broth, wine, or coconut milk. Since chicken breast is a lean cut, adding some fat can help keep it tender and juicy. Options like mayonnaise, butter, or oil work well for this purpose.
