Whole Crock Pot Chicken image

I made this one day when I was in a very big hurry to get to work, but I also wanted a nice dinner to come home too. Since my Fiance works the same hours almost that I do...well, that wasn't happening. So, I decided to see how a whole frozen chicken would do in a crock pot, and it was great!

Time 10h10m

Yield 1 chicken, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 (3 lb) frozen whole chickens (or a chicken that with just fit in your crock pot)
1 lb cremini mushrooms or 1 lb button mushroom, halved
1 small onion
3 garlic cloves
1/2 tablespoon dried rosemary
1/2 tablespoon black pepper
1/2 tablespoon salt (I like kosher)
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon onion powder
3 tablespoons butter, softened
2 tablespoons honey

Steps:

  • Place the chicken and the mushrooms in a crock pot set to low.
  • (I put mine on high, but it's really old and doesn't heat up as well as it should, so go with your instincts on this one).
  • Place all the other ingredients in a food processor (I use one mini food processor) and blend them into a paste.
  • Pour the paste over the chicken and mushrooms, cover with the lid, and let it cook for about 10 hours ENJOY.
  • PS it will be very VERY tender so be careful when you are taking it out of the crock pot because it will just fall apart.
  • Also, the stock that the chicken makes is GREAT for chicken noodle soup!
