This elegant ricotta-and-herb-stuffed chicken offers a sophisticated twist on the traditional roast. By gently tucking a fragrant mixture of fresh oregano, flat-leaf parsley and creamy ricotta beneath the skin, the meat remains incredibly succulent while the skin crisps to a beautiful golden finish. It is a wonderfully aromatic dish that fills the kitchen with the scent of fresh Mediterranean herbs and roasted garlic.

As a diabetes-friendly main course, this recipe focuses on high-quality protein and healthy fats rather than heavy carbohydrate fillers. Serving the extra stuffing as a side gratin adds a touch of indulgence without the need for traditional potatoes or bready stuffings. It is an ideal choice for a nutritious family lunch or a weekend dinner party where flavour and health are equally prioritised.

45ml अतिरिक्त-कुंवारी जैतून का तेल
950ml whole-milk ricotta (preferably fresh
900g )
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
150g grated Parmigiano-Reggiano (60g)
40g chopped fresh oregano
1/4 कप कटा हुआ ताज़ा फ्लैट-लीफ पार्सले
2 whole chickens (each about 1.6kg)

How to make Ricotta-and-Herb-Stuffed Chicken

Preheat oven to 204°C with racks in middle and lower third.

Cook garlic in oil in a small heavy skillet over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until pale golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and stir in ricotta, eggs, parmesan, herbs, 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 1/4 teaspoons pepper.

Cut out backbones from chickens with kitchen shears (freeze bones for making stock if desired). Pat chickens dry, then spread flat, skin sides up, on a cutting board. Cut a 1/2-inch slit on each side of chicken in centre of triangle of skin between thigh and breast (near drumstick), then tuck knob of each drumstick thourough slit.

Sprinkle each chicken with 3/4 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoons pepper and spread chickens flat, skin sides up, in an oiled large (17- by 12-inch) shallow baking pan. Gently slide your finger between skin and flesh of breast and legs of 1 chicken to loosen skin (be careful not to tear skin). Using a small spoon, slide 160ml ricotta mixture under skin, using a finger on outside of skin to spread filling over meat of breast, thighs, and drumsticks. Tuck wing tips under. Stuff second chicken in same manner. Brush skin of chickens all over with oil (2 tablespoons ) and sprinkle each with 3/4 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoons pepper.

Spoon remaining filling into an oiled 1-quart shallow baking dish (10 by 7 inches).

Bake chickens in middle of oven 30 minutes, then put dish of stuffing in oven on lower rack. Continue baking until chicken is just cooked thourough and an instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part of a thigh (through stuffing; do not touch bone) registers 77°C and until gratin is puffed and golden, about 30 minutes more. Let chickens stand 10 minutes, then cut each into quarters. Serve with gratin.
