Preparation
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Prepare the chicken: Pat the chicken thighs (4 thighs) dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, mix the chopped rosemary (1 Tbsp), minced garlic (2 cloves), sea salt (½ tsp), black pepper (¼ tsp), and smoked paprika (¼ tsp). Rub the rosemary seasoning mixture evenly under and over the chicken skin. Heat the melted butter (2 Tbsp) in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat.
Cook the chicken: Sear the chicken thighs skin-side down for 4–5 minutes until golden and crispy. Flip and sear the other side for 2–3 minutes.
Bake the chicken: Transfer the skillet to the oven and roast for 20–25 minutes, until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Serve: Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes. Drizzle with olive oil (1 Tbsp) before serving.
The economic impact of obesity is projected to reach 4.32 trillion dollars by 2035, if treatment measures don’t improve. The incidence of chronic diseases is increasing, while the costs of treating them are also on the rise. The go-to treatment for these conditions is pharmaceutical drugs. But is this “drug first policy” working?
In this article Marryanne Demasi explores how drug and food policies have led us to this point, with ultra-processed foods now making up the majority of people’s diets in the U.S. and U.K.
