Rotisserie chicken is a flavorful and tender dish where whole chicken is seasoned and roasted on a rotating spit for even cooking. Originating from European cuisine, this preparation method ensures juicy meat and crisp, golden skin, often seasoned with simple spices like salt, pepper, garlic, and herbs. It’s a versatile protein source, rich in essential nutrients like niacin, vitamin B6, and phosphorus. Skinless portions are lower in fat and calories, making them a heart-healthy option, while the skin contains added fats and cholesterol, which should be consumed in moderation. Compared to fried alternatives, rotisserie chicken is generally healthier due to minimal added oils. It’s a great addition to balanced meals, paired with vegetables or whole grains, but sodium content in pre-seasoned or store-bought varieties can be high, so check labels if monitoring salt intake.
