A Chicken in One Pot: Rosemary’s roast chicken is delicious—and easy

September 29, 2025 | by Rosemary Ruggieri Baer

Cooking, and food that is in vogue at a particular time, changes constantly.

In my early years of cooking, my favorite magazines (Food and Wine, Gourmet and Bon Appetit) touted French and Italian cooking. Those dishes remain my favorites today. Asian-influenced cuisine seemed to come next. Now, as I browse current cooking magazines, the recipes contain many ingredients I’ve never heard of or know where to obtain.

A current trend is “one pan cooking.” One pan as in “sheet pan” which, for me, is more difficult than the cooking gurus would have you believe (lots of last-minute activity going on here).

But one of my favorite Italian cookbook authors, chef and restaurant owner, Lidia Bastianich, has published a small cookbook of her favorite recipes. Many of them are her versions of the “one pan” trend. But hers are really one pot dinners (maybe Italians have been doing this for a while).

I am totally in love with Lidia’s roast chicken. I have been making it at least once a week and find I can alternate several of the ingredients with success. You can add a green salad to the meal but, with all the vegetables in this dish, it is all you need for an almost hands-off dinner. It really is “one pot!”

One of the keys to making a great roast chicken is a good, heavy casserole dish so that all the good chicken juices are retained. I have a mid-sized oval Le Creuset “Dutch oven” that is perfect. These types of roasting vessels are forgiving if your meal has spent a little extra time in the oven.

One Pan Roast Chicken

Ingredients

One whole small chicken, about 3½ to 4 pounds
A mix of root vegetables such as yellow gold potatoes, whole carrots, turnips, sweet onions, butternut squash or sweet potatoes, all peeled and cut into ½-inch cubes. (I change this up every time I make this chicken; heavy on the potatoes for me!)
Mixed chopped fresh herbs. Sometimes, I only use parsley. Add what you like or none at all. A single bay leaf adds an interesting flavor.
Good olive oil or sweet, unsalted butter. I alternate between the two but use plenty to cover the bird.
At least 2 cups of braising liquid: beer, white wine or chicken broth.
Salt and pepper to taste

Directions

Scrub and peel the root vegetables you have chosen. If you are using very small “new” potatoes, you can leave them whole and unpeeled. Place them all in your casserole dish. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Dry the chicken thoroughly with paper towels. No need to tie up the legs and wings.
Spread olive oil or softened butter all over the chicken and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Good sea salt really amps up the flavor. Sprinkle chopped parsley or herbs, if using, over all.
Pour your chosen braising liquid all around the chicken. Two cups seems like a lot, but you need to moisten the chicken when serving. (Beer sounds odd, but it works!)
Cover the pot and place in a pre-heated, 350-degree oven. Roast for 2 to 2½ hours until the chicken is golden brown. When done, the chicken should practically fall off the bone.
Lift the chicken and vegetables onto a platter and drench them with the braising liquid. Everything should be soft and tender.

Welcome to a new favorite fall and winter dinner—great for Sunday dinner but works on weeknights too.

The French call this stew-like dish “Pot au Feu” or “pot on fire,” and the Italians, “Bollito Misto.” I think you will call it delicious.

Making Healthcare More Affordable in Central PA

September 29, 2025 | by Todd Shamash

Todd Shamash is president and CEO of Capital Blue Cross.

As a company founded in Harrisburg nearly 90 years ago, Capital Blue Cross has always had a vested interest in the health and well-being of this community. We’re proud to do our part to help make the Harrisburg region a great place to live, work, and raise families.

Central Pennsylvania, like so many areas of the country, struggles to ensure everyone has access to affordable, quality healthcare that can help them enjoy fulfilling, productive lives.

So why is healthcare so expensive?

There are a lot of factors driving healthcare costs, but let’s look at how Capital Blue Cross is effectively addressing three major ones: how services are paid for, how chronic illnesses like diabetes and heart disease are treated, and the growing demand for prescription drugs.

Capital Promotes a Better Healthcare Payment Model

Healthcare providers, whether it’s a hospital or your family doctor, are often paid based on the number of tests and treatments provided rather than the quality and effectiveness of those services. But what if they were paid based on whether your health actually improved?

Capital advocates a payment model that rewards healthcare providers based on how much they help patients improve or maintain their health. Our model looks at factors that historically were often absent from the payment equation—quality of care, patient satisfaction, and appropriate cost. And we look at data on the effectiveness of care to continually find ways to further improve care.

The end result is more effective care at lower costs.

Capital Helps Manage Chronic Illnesses

Odds are you or someone you know has diabetes, heart disease, or another chronic condition that requires ongoing monitoring and care. In fact, 6 in 10 Americans are living with at least one chronic disease.

The complexity and cost of treating chronic illnesses continues to rise in part because traditional care models can sometimes lack the coordinated care and proactive support patients need.

Capital is working to fix this. We have care teams that focus on coordinating care and engaging our members with chronic illnesses to help improve their health outcomes and reduce costs of care without compromising the quality of care. We also work closely with our network provider and health systems to strengthen traditional care models.

We also promote a concept of “whole-person care,” which takes into account all the social and economic factors that might be impacting a person’s well-being. For instance, if someone dealing with a chronic illness has difficulty affording medications or arranging transportation to a doctor, we look at ways to overcome those challenges so they can get the care they need.

Capital is Making Prescription Drugs More Affordable

Nearly half of Americans routinely take a prescription medication and spending on retail prescription drugs has steadily increased for decades. The cost of these drugs can lead some to stop taking necessary medications, putting their health at risk.

Capital Blue Cross has proven programs to rein in drug costs. For businesses that have Capital coverage for their employees, we’ve managed to lower the cost of expensive specialty drugs that treat conditions like arthritis, psoriasis, and Crohn’s Disease. Our strategies saved those employers more than $11 million in 2024, while also saving the employees thousands of dollars annually.

We also were the first health insurer in the nation to work with Mark Cuban Cost Plus Drugs to help people save on their prescriptions, helping our members get dramatic savings on critical prescriptions. Cost Plus Drugs has a simple, transparent cost formula on hundreds of commonly used medications to treat everything from high blood pressure to diabetes to mental health.

We know there will continue to be challenges in addressing the cost and access to healthcare, but Capital is continually looking at ways to proactively address these challenges. As a locally based and not-for-profit insurer, It’s part of our commitment to go the extra mile for Harrisburg and all the communities we call home.

Financial body accepts Harrisburg’s proposed five-year financial plan, outlines areas of concern

September 26, 2025 | by Lawrance Binda

Harrisburg’s MLK Jr. Government Center

A state-appointed financial authority has approved Harrisburg’s five-year financial plan but also outlined a variety of challenges facing the city over the next several years.

On Wednesday, the Intergovernmental Cooperation Authority (ICA) accepted the city’s five-year plan, which anticipates a series of balanced budgets “based on reasonable and appropriate assumptions,” according to the ICA.

The state legislature created the ICA in 2019 to help oversee and guide Harrisburg’s finances. As part of the legislation, the city had to submit an updated five-year financial plan to the ICA.

In accepting the plan, ICA Chair Doug Hill also communicated several areas of concern with the city, including:

* Revenues/cash balance. The ICA is concerned about falling values and assessments of Harrisburg property, especially downtown, due to remote work policies by the state and other office workers, which could result in reduced property tax revenue for the city. “As [Harrisburg is] Pennsylvania’s capital city, the commonwealth has some hard decisions to make about what kind of metropolis it wants to have as its seat of governance. Any reimagining of Harrisburg and its finances must include a full commitment to the city by state leaders, including diversified revenue sources and an economic development partnership.”

* Neighborhood Services Fund. The ICA would like receivables for the city’s sanitation services to be above 95%, a level it has consistently failed to achieve. In the recent past, the city has boosted collections by using American Rescue Plan Act funds to support unpaid sanitation bills for economically disadvantaged households, but relying on this “found money” isn’t sustainable long-term, according to the ICA.

* Economic Development Plan. The ICA welcomes the city partnering with CREDC and other city stakeholders to form a comprehensive economic development plan, an effort currently in the planning and fundraising stages. “Apart from its importance for the vitality and opportunity it affords the downtown and our neighborhoods, it is an integral tool for the city to build long-term economic growth in the face of future trends in city revenue,” the ICA stated.

* The Broad Street Market. The ICA stated that is concerned about “the slow progress and rising costs associated with the city’s efforts to rebuild the Broad Street Market.” The market’s brick building burned in July 2023, and reconstruction is finally slated to begin next week. In addition, the administration’s estimated cost for the work has consistently risen over time, now estimated at $23 million, leaving the city with a funding gap of about $14.4 million for the project.

Several of these concerns have been mentioned by the ICA in previous financial reports, including the need to boost trash collection rates and to formulate a comprehensive economic development plan for the city.

People sometimes make the mistake of thinking they should be wealthy to seek the advice of an FA. However, the best time to seek a professional’s input is whenever you need to map your next steps or invest more wisely. Certain milestones can signal it is time to contact a money advice partner.

Starting a new job
Getting a raise
Paying down debt
Retirement planning
Major life events like marriage, divorce or inheritance
Investing for the first time
Saving for education for yourself, children or grandchildren

You can always start making your cash work for you. An FA can assess your specific circumstances and align your goals with actions. Any time you stumble over the next steps is an excellent time to consult a professional.

How to Choose a Financial Advisor

Money management is a complex endeavor. You must figure out evolving federal tax laws and ones specific to Pennsylvania, pay attention to unstable markets, decide which investment options are in your comfort zone, and consider different life phases for long-term planning. A trusted professional can shoulder some of the stress and explain investment strategies.

1. Understand Your Goals and What Type of Advisor You Need

Before hiring someone to help, gain clarity on your financial goals. List the topics you need guidance on, such as retirement planning or an overall investment strategy. Since there are different types of FAs, having clarity on your needs can point you to the right person for the job.

Financial planners look at the big picture and create strategies related to savings, debt and insurance. Investment advisors manage portfolios and provide insight into the wisest places to put your money. Wealth managers work with high-net-worth individuals and offer advanced tax and estate planning advice. By understanding the specializations of each, you will be able to pinpoint the best type of professional for you.

2. Narrow Your Choices in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania

One way to prune your options is to utilize online tools like those at Fort Pitt Capital Group, with its advisor matching service. Instead of spending hours reading through various profiles and trying to find the best advisor in Harrisburg, you can use the free tool to narrow down your options and ensure only qualified advisors make the list.

3. Check Financial Advisor Qualifications

Once you have a list of potential FAs in your area, look for respected designations such as chartered financial analyst (CFA) or certified financial planner (CFP), which show the professional has completed a certain level of training and agreed to abide by organizational standards.

Use tools such as BrokerCheck to see employment history, certifications, licenses and potential violations. You can also identify violations through the SEC’s Investment Adviser Public Disclosure database and ensure the person has a current CFP or CFA designation.

4. Evaluate Experience and Expertise

Degrees and certifications only tell part of the story. You should also evaluate the person’s experience working with clients in a similar financial situation. If you need help with retirement planning, how many retirees has the advisor worked with? You can assess some of their skills by asking for references from their clients and looking at online reviews on Facebook and Google.

You could also contact the Better Business Bureau in Harrisburg, PA, and the Pennsylvania Office of Attorney General’s Bureau of Consumer Protection.

5. Consider the Advisor’s Approach and Philosophy

Most advisors list their philosophy on their website. Read through their bio and their description of what they do. Narrow your list to the ones that match your investment comfort zone. Do you want a conservative, long-term approach to investing or something aggressive? Determine your risk tolerance and ask the FA how they would approach investment decisions for a client like you.

6. Understand the Fee Structure

Before signing up with an FA, find out if they are commission-based, charge a flat rate or require a percentage of your managed assets. A few even use a hybrid model where they combine fees and commissions. The most transparent option is fee-only, because you know exactly what you will pay. However, the least expensive option could be a hybrid one. A commission-based approach ensures the FA has to work hard for you to earn their money, so they may perform slightly better.

7. Meet With Multiple Advisors

Gather your shortlist of names and interview FAs just as you would a job candidate. Schedule an introductory meeting with each one and utilize your time to ask what process they use to determine investing and how aggressive their model is. Pay attention to whether the advisor listens when you speak. Those who talk fast or use complex industry jargon may not hear your needs or be the best fit for you.

You should ask what aspects they cover or if another person in their firm can handle additional needs. If the FA only helps with retirement planning, is there someone in the office who covers education planning or budgeting?

8. Check References

If you collected references in the initial phase of narrowing your choices, now is the time to call them and talk to current or former clients about their experience with the FA. You could also reach out to a local friend if you notice they have left a review or followed the advisory firm on Facebook or another social media platform.

9. Trust Your Gut

You need someone you can connect with to get the most from your financial planning. The person has to be able to understand your vision and help you plan the milestones to make it happen. Some personalities mesh better with others.

Listen to your instincts, but consider more than personality when deciding. Which FA says things that resonate with you? Are they an active listener? Do you believe what they tell you? Finding someone you can trust and communicate well with is essential.

The Benefits of Working with a Financial Advisor

Knowing how to choose an FA requires time and due diligence. You might be tempted to figure out investing on your own. However, working with the right FA provides various advantages.

A personalized plan that fits your life stage and goals
Advice that comes from clarity and experience instead of emotions
Experience in investment management and tax planning
Accountability to ensure you stick with the plan long-term
Support and quick pivots as your life changes

When you develop a relationship with a skilled FA, you gain peace of mind that your financial future will be positive.

Taking Your Next Steps Toward Financial Confidence

Although finding the perfect FA for you is about checking off some boxes, it is also about finding someone you trust and who listens to your needs. When you start your hunt by knowing your goals and understanding the type of advisor you need, you can save time using tools that narrow your options quickly.

Financial success means navigating a complex investing world filled with potholes and detours. The right advisor offers a roadmap that gives you the keys to achieving your dreams. Begin your search and get a head start on the journey.
