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.

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!

The Art of Eating Well on Almost Nothing

Dried legumes — beans, lentils, and chickpeas — are among the most nutritionally complete and economical foods available, providing significant amounts of plant-based protein, dietary fiber, iron, folate, and complex carbohydrates at a fraction of the cost of animal proteins. Regular legume consumption is one of the most consistent dietary patterns associated with longevity in the Blue Zone populations — the communities around the world with the highest concentrations of centenarians — making the humble bean one of the most health-supportive and budget-friendly foods available in any kitchen.

Mexican Chorizo Rice

Rice cooked directly in seasoned broth—rather than plain water—absorbs significantly more flavor with no additional sodium or fat beyond what’s already in the recipe, making this a naturally efficient way to build a bold, satisfying meal from lean pantry staples. Mexican chorizo is bold enough in flavor that a modest amount seasons the entire dish, keeping portions nutritionally balanced without sacrificing any of the recipe’s signature depth.

The Purple Oreos Just Landed in Stores — Plus Dunkin’ Has an Oreo Menu Right Now and KFC’s $5 Tenders Deal Ends Today

Limited-edition cookies and specialty drinks are best enjoyed mindfully — the BTS Oreos are a genuinely unique flavor worth trying, but a serving is three cookies, not the whole pack. If you’re pairing them with a Dunkin’ Oreo drink today, consider sizing down to a small or medium — the flavor is the same, just in a more manageable portion. And if you’re squeezing in the KFC tenders tonight, opting for a side of green beans instead of mashed potatoes is an easy swap that keeps the protein-forward meal more balanced overall.
