Roasted chicken with fruits can become a tasty gourmet meal.
Summer brings us a wonderful selection of fruits and nectarines go well with roasted chicken.
I would like to emphasize that poultry meat contains B vitamins that prevent many diseases and take care of the proper functioning of the human body, contain many minerals that the body does not produce and therefore we must take them within a balanced diet. Protein is needed for the renewal and growth of cells in our body. As a healthy source of protein, experts recommend poultry. Fats are essential for our body for energy, but also for dissolving vitamins that are necessary for the eyes, bones, skin and brain. Essential fatty acids also act as antioxidants, help red blood cells to transport oxygen, contribute to normal kidney function, protect muscle tissue from decay, positively affect the rate of metabolism… and we can find them in poultry meat.
