The Secret To A Juicy Roasted Chicken #CookWithSpreads

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Unilever. However, I have been a long-time user of their products, so this post is naturally written with all of my honest opinions. I shop at Walmart frequently because I can fill my cart up with more items at a fraction of the cost of other stores. I can also do all of my shopping in one place instead of having to go to several stores. My kids often come along with me, and they are so used to me taking pictures with my camera or phone, that they sometimes help out. This is an image that my 5-year-old, Jakobi, shot of me shopping!

I like that I kind find ingredients for my recipes that are reasonably priced. Walmart even carries a selection of natural and organic ingredients. I was planning on roasting a chicken and having my brother come over for dinner. I just got a new roasting pan and I wanted to try it out! I wanted a non-hormonal chicken that wasn’t pumped full of strange things to pass on to my kids. I was able to purchase a natural chicken along with the ciabatta bread I made the stuffing out of. You know how it goes with Walmart, you go in wanting to buy a few items, and walk out with a full cart!

I have roasted a few chickens before, and it took a while until I realized the secret to a juicy roasted chicken. It is all about what you put inside! I found this secret ingredient at Walmart as well: Country Crock spread.

In order to have a super juicy chicken, you smother the outside with spices and then stuff the inside with 3 tablespoons of Country Crock spread. Then you dallop Country Crock spread on the outside as well. Preheat to 350 degrees, and cook for 1 hour and 15 minutes. Super juicy roasted chicken every time!

Country Crock® spread has 70% less saturated fat than butter and 30% fewer calories, so you can bring bring food and family together with a smile on your face.
