Preparation

Step 1

Cut the parsnips, carrots, celery, and onion into large chunks making sure that the carrots and parsnips are cut roughly the same size for even cooking. 

Place the chicken in the crockpot and sprinkle with sea salt and black pepper. 

On top of the chicken layer the onions and whole garlic cloves followed by the parsnips, carrots, and celery.

In a glass measuring cup mix together the chicken broth, coconut oil, thyme and sage (it helps to melt the coconut oil first in the microwave). 

Pour this mixture evenly over the chicken and veggies and cook on high for 5 hours or low for 7.
