Roasted Chicken/Turkey with Vegetables and Gravy

Roasted Chicken/Turkey with Vegetables and Gravy

This classic recipe consists of roasted chicken or turkey, stuffed with savory stuffing and served with a comforting and colorful medley of vegetables like carrots, broccoli, and dark-green leafy greens to provide various vitamins and minerals, such as vitamins A and K, fiber, and antioxidants. The addition of gravy gives an extra burst of flavor and moisture to the dish. Depending on the type and cut of poultry used, the dish can be a good source of lean protein, and the vegetables contribute to the fiber and nutrient contents of the dish. However, a downside of this dish can be its high sodium and saturated fat content, particularly in the gravy and stuffing components, which can be minimized by reducing salt and fat or opting for homemade versions.
