The recipe comes from genius kitchen but I made modifications with spices that I preferred or had on hand and with different proportions which I guess technically makes it my recipe:
http://www.geniuskitchen.com/recipe/crock-pot-whole-chicken-33671
Ingredients: I bought a 5 lb spring whole chicken that was on sale
Spices:
4 tsp sea salt
4 tsp paprika
2 tsp onion powder
2 tsp thyme
2 tsp rosemary
2 tsp pepper
2 tsp cumin
1 tsp garlic powder
- In a small bowl, combine the spices.
- Remove any giblets from chicken and clean chicken.
- Rub spice mixture onto the chicken.
- Place in resealable plastic bag and refrigerate overnight. (Try not to skip this step as the chicken comes our so much better)
- When ready to cook, put chopped onion in bottom of crock pot.
- Add chicken. No liquid is needed, the chicken will make its own juices.
- Cook on low 4-8 hours (usually 8 for me)
Here's the photo with koala's approval: I'd show you the whole chicken but it was devoured so quickly ><
