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.

  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!

Shrimp is one of the leanest proteins available, low in calories while delivering high-quality protein, selenium, and iodine. Using buttermilk in the dredge rather than a heavy batter creates a lighter, thinner coating that crisps beautifully without absorbing excessive oil. The cabbage adds fiber and vitamin C, making this indulgent-tasting taco more nutritionally balanced than it appears.

The Picnic Reimagined: Food Worth Eating Outside

Research on eating environment and meal satisfaction consistently finds that meals eaten outdoors — in natural settings with exposure to sunlight and fresh air — are associated with lower stress levels, better appetite regulation, and higher overall meal satisfaction compared to meals eaten indoors. The specific exposure to natural light during outdoor eating supports circadian rhythm regulation and vitamin D synthesis, making the outdoor meal a health practice as well as a pleasurable one. The blanket on the grass is, in other words, not just a romantic choice — it is a physiologically beneficial one.

Using lean ground beef—90/10 or higher—keeps the protein content strong and the saturated fat moderate, and the chipotle in adobo delivers bold smoky-spicy flavor with virtually no added fat.
