(from Ramona’s recipe box)
Source: *Kathy*, Recipezaar (from RecipeThing user saymyname)
Serves 4 peopleCategories: Chicken, Main Dish, Slow Cooker
Ingredients
- 4 teaspoons salt
- 2 teaspoons paprika
- 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon thyme
- 1 teaspoon white pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 large roasting chicken (with pop-up timer if possible)
- 1 cup onion, chopped
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).
