Description

Crockpot Whole Chicken combines ease and flavor, making it perfect for quick dinners. With tender chicken and seasoned vegetables, this dish satisfies every palate!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 to 5 pounds roasting chicken
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 pound red potatoes
  • 2 medium carrots
  • 1 medium yellow onion

Instructions

  1. Spray the slow cooker with cooking spray and prepare a 6-quart slow cooker for use.
  2. Rub the chicken with olive oil, mix the seasonings in a bowl, and apply them to the chicken. Tuck the wings under the chicken.
  3. Place the vegetables in the slow cooker, followed by the chicken on top. Cook on low for 4 to 6 hours, or until the chicken reaches 165°F and juices run clear.
  4. Prepare a baking sheet with aluminum foil, place the chicken on it, and broil on low for 5 to 10 minutes until golden brown, keeping a close eye to prevent burning.
  5. Tent the chicken with foil and allow it to rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
  6. If vegetables aren't fully cooked when the chicken is ready, cover and switch the slow cooker to high, cooking the vegetables until soft.

Notes

For extra crispiness, ensure you broil the chicken carefully while watching it closely.
Feel free to add your favorite herbs for extra flavor.
