Directions: |
Directions: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. (I usually skip this step because I'm always in a hurry). When ready to cook, put chopped onion in bottom of crock-pot. Add chicken. No liquid is needed, the chicken will make it's own juices. Cook on low 4-8 hours.
Note: I highly recommend a pop-up timer in the chicken because some crock pots cook faster/slower than others (my crock pot cooks this recipe in 4-5 hours).
I COOKED A BIGGER CHICKEN almost 2 hours on high and then 5- 6 hours on low. |

Notes: Tender, fall-off-the-bone chicken! Skip the overnight refrigeration if you are in a hurry. For variety, eliminate the onion and substitute a quartered lemon or two, stuffed into the chicken cavity. Chef Shapeweaver had a good suggestion: Use Fajita Seasoning Mix #28011 as another variation. Thanks! The standard size slow cookers are a bit too small and a whole chicken won't fit. You'll need a 6-quart slow cooker for this recipe.
