We eat a lot of chicken in this house due to the healthier aspect of it as well as being low in fat. I love trying new flavors of seasonings and sometimes even a marinade is great too.

Today, I want to share a delicious and easy recipe for my roasted chicken using a simple marinade of Olive Oil and a few seasonings.

I attend and even work a lot of vendor and craft type shows and one of my favorite vendors to purchase from is a local olive oil company located in the foothills of California. Sierra Olive Oil has been hand-making olive oils since 1995.

Their oil blends are fresh and flavorful, perfect for adding to recipes or even as a bread dipper. They offer 11 different blends like Red Chile/Garlic, Jalapeno/Garlic, Dillweed/Clove, Italian Blend, Sundried Tomato/Basil and many more. Last month, I was at an event and picked up a few bottles of Basil/Garlic and Rosemary/Garlic to enjoy.
