Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
4-5tbsp olive oil
A few sprigs of rosemary
2 heads of jumbo garlic, halved
Preheat the oven to 180C/gas mark 5. Wrap each half of garlic in tin foil and place it on a tray in the oven for 20 minutes, then remove the foil and continue baking for another 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, cut the chickens in half and flatten them a little with your hand or a meat bat. Preheat a barbecue or ribbed griddle pan, season the meat well and brush with some olive oil.
Grill the chickens for about 6-8 minutes on each side, transfer to a tray and then finish in the oven for another 10 minutes or so.
To serve, heat the rest of the olive oil in a pan, strip the leaves from the rosemary and heat in the oil for 30 seconds or so – but don't let it brown too much.
Serve on plates or a sharing dish with the baked garlic and the rosemary spooned over the chicken.
