ROASTED CHICKEN WITH DATE SYRUP GLAZE

Roasted chicken is a better option because it has lower saturated fats and cholesterol. It's also packed with protein, vitamin B12 and iron. If you're looking to increase protein in your diet, roasted chicken is an excellent source

Date syrup is essentially liquified dates, this sweetener boasts the same heart-healthy benefits as the fruit itself.  Date syrup is free of sodium, cholesterol, trans fat, and saturated fat. It’s also high in minerals that support heart function, like potassium and magnesium.
