Healthy Fact of the Day

Herb-roasted chicken is a delightful and healthy choice, offering lean protein and robust flavors.

Ingredients

 

  • 1 whole chicken (about 4-5 pounds)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons fresh thyme, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons fresh sage, chopped
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth (low-sodium)

 

Instructions

 

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Rinse the whole chicken inside and out, and pat it dry with paper towels.
  3. In a small bowl, combine the minced garlic, chopped fresh rosemary, thyme, and sage, and olive oil.
  4. Rub the herb and garlic mixture all over the outside of the chicken. Season it generously with salt and black pepper.
  5. Place the seasoned chicken in a roasting pan.
  6. Pour the chicken broth into the bottom of the roasting pan.
  7. Roast the chicken in the preheated oven for about 75-90 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the skin is golden brown and crispy.
  8. If the skin starts to brown too quickly, you can tent it with aluminum foil.
  9. Remove the Herb-Roasted Chicken from the oven and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before carving.
  10. Carve the chicken and serve it hot, with the herb-infused pan juices.

Tip of the Day

“Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!
