Slow cooker roast chicken

  • 1

Ingredients

  • 1 small chicken, preferably organic or pasture-raised
  • A 3.5 quart crock pot or slow cooker (buy one here- affiliate link)
  • 1 large carrot (or two small carrots)
  • 1 large onion
  • One lemon or orange – depending on your taste or what you have in the fridge. (You need this step to provide moisture!)
  • Sea salt (buy it here) and Pepper
  • A tablespoon of apple cider vinegar (buy it here) – you’ll use this in the second part of this recipe.

Preparation

Step 1

So you have the slow cooker but the question ‘how do I cook with a slow cooker or crock pot?’ has likely crossed your mind.  A good place to start is your local library, they are bound to have books on slow cooker and crock pot cooking.

I love cooking but am a lazy cook; I absolutely LOVE my slow cooker.  It is really easy, and leaves one pot to wash up. Bonus! I love this super easy slow cooker roast chicken. Learn how to make it yourself.  You get two meals in one from this!

Peel the carrots and onion.  Chop them into largish chunks.  Place in the bottom of the slow cooker.

Generously add salt and pepper and

mixed herbs

Place the chicken in the slow cooker.

Squeeze the other half of the orange or lemon around the chicken and place both halves into the slow cooker.

Place the lid on the slow cooker and set to high (II on some slow cookers) for ONE hour.

Use an oven thermometer to make sure that the leg is 160F, or 75c i.e. safe and cooked.

Place chicken on a carving board.

To make a rich and hearty chicken stock:

Add a bit of filtered water, to cover the bones.  Add a dash of apple cider vinegar (buy it here) and some parsley stalks (only if you have them).
