Herb-Roasted Chicken

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.

 

This Herb-Roasted Chicken is a flavorful and healthy option for a hearty family dinner. Enjoy the aromatic blend of fresh herbs and the succulent chicken!

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!

Dairy Queen Is Dropping Three New Blizzards and a $2.50 Fourth of July Float — This Sunday

Of the three new Blizzard flavors, the Strawberry Mango Mochi Blizzard is the lightest in flavor profile — fruit-forward, without the heavy chocolate or caramel components of the other two. Ordering a small size is one of the easiest ways to enjoy any Blizzard while keeping the calorie count in check. The Stars & Stripes Misty Slush Float at $2.50 in a small size is also a lighter option than a full Blizzard, with a lower fat content since it’s primarily slush and a smaller soft serve portion. If you’re celebrating Fourth of July with a family gathering, sharing a float and splitting a Blizzard between two people is a practical way to try both without doubling the indulgence.

The Way We Ate: How Food Has Changed in One Generation

Research tracking American dietary patterns over the past fifty years consistently documents both significant improvements and significant concerns. The increase in variety — in the diversity of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains available and consumed — represents genuine nutritional progress. The concurrent increase in ultra-processed food consumption — foods engineered for palatability, shelf stability, and convenience rather than nutritional completeness — represents one of the most significant public health challenges of the era. The most consistent finding across this research is that the greatest determinant of dietary quality is the degree to which food is prepared from whole ingredients rather than purchased in processed form — making cooking from scratch one of the most significant health behaviors available, regardless of the specific cuisine or ingredients involved.

Slow Cooker Dump Dinners: Throw It In, Walk Away, Eat Like a Hero

Slow-cooked proteins like beef, pork, and chicken retain significantly more moisture and require less added fat than high-heat cooking methods, making braised and slow-cooked meals a naturally leaner option without sacrificing satisfaction. The low, sustained heat of a slow cooker also preserves heat-sensitive B vitamins in meat more effectively than roasting or grilling at high temperatures. Legumes like white beans and black beans — staples in many dump dinner recipes — are among the most nutrient-dense foods available, delivering substantial fiber, plant-based protein, iron, and folate in a single serving. The instinct to build a meal around beans and a modest amount of protein is not just a budget decision — it is, nutritionally, one of the most efficient ways to eat well on a weekday.
