Health benefits of Moroccan Lemon Chicken With Oven-Fried Sweet Potatoes
Lemons can help to prevent oxidative damage to the body, which women with PCOS are often susceptible to. Lemons are also rich in vitamin C, flavonoids, and other antioxidants. They can potentially support the immune system and have other health benefits. Lemons also have a low glycemic index, so they should not cause a rapid rise in blood sugar when consumed in natural form.
Ingredients
Spice Blend
1 tbsp. salt
2 tsp. ground cumin
2 tsp. turmeric
1 tsp. ground ginger
1 tsp. red pepper (cayenne)
1 tsp. paprika
3 1/2 to 4-lb whole chicken
1 lemon
Small poultry skewers or wooden toothpicks
Nonstick spray
2 1/2 lb. sweet potatoes
Yogurt Dipping Sauce: 1 cup plain lowfat yogurt mixed with 1 ⁄2 tsp each salt and minced garlic
Instructions
Place 1 oven rack on lowest rungs. Position second rack on rungs just above it. Heat oven to 375 °F. Have ready a roasting pan with a rack, and lightly coat 2 rimmed baking sheets with nonstick spray.
Mix Spice Blend ingredients in a large bowl.
Loosen chicken skin from meat on thighs and breast. Rub 1 ⁄4 the spice blend under the skin, then slip in 6 lemon slices to cover spices. Put rest of lemon in body cavity. Skewer skin closed. Sprinkle another 1 ⁄4 of the spice blend all over the chicken. Place on pan rack; coat chicken with nonstick spray.
Roast 1 hour on the higher oven rack.
Meanwhile cut each potato lengthwise in 8 wedges. Add to bowl with spices; toss to coat. Spread on baking sheets; coat with nonstick spray.
After chicken roasts 50 minutes, place baking sheets side by side on lower rack. Bake 10 minutes or until an instant-read thermometer inserted in thickest part of thigh, not touching bone, registers at least 170 °F. Turn potatoes over. Remove chicken from oven; cover loosely with foil. Place potatoes on higher rack. While chicken stands, bake potatoes about 10 minutes more until tender and browned.
Carve chicken; serve potatoes with Sauce.
