About Roast chicken with gravy

Roast Chicken with Gravy is a classic dish celebrated in many cuisines, particularly British and American comfort food traditions. It features tender, oven-roasted chicken seasoned with herbs like thyme, rosemary, and garlic, paired with a rich gravy usually made from drippings, flour, butter, and broth. This combination creates a savory, satisfying meal full of flavor. The dish is a good source of protein, vitamins like B6, and essential minerals such as zinc and phosphorus. Opting for skinless chicken can reduce fat content and make it heart-healthier. However, attention should be paid to the gravy, as it can be high in saturated fats and sodium depending on preparation methods. Pairing this dish with steamed vegetables or whole grains enhances its nutritional value, making it a balanced choice for a wholesome meal. It's a comforting, versatile staple loved by families worldwide.
