So easy!!! Anything in a slow cooker is usually easy though :) I was browsing The Foodie Blogroll for some ideas on crockpot recipes and found The Cooking Husband’s blog. I’m trying to do more crockpot recipes, perhaps trying one twice or four times a month. Anyway, I thought The Cooking Husband’s whole chicken approach was quite similar to how I prepare my Mexican flavored chicken that I use for anything I need shredded chicken for; however, his, as I said, uses a whole chicken! The sous chef and I simply prepared some rice to eat with this. I prepared the rice similar to the way Chipotle’s rice is done. Instead of lime and cilantro, I used lemon juice and grated lemon peel. Source: Whole Chicken with Spice Rub in the Crock Pot
4 teaspoons salt
2 teaspoons paprika
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon thyme, chopped
1 teaspoon white pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 onion, chopped
In a small bowl, combine the above minus the onion.
Rub spice rub onto the chicken. Put chopped onion in bottom of the crock pot. Add chicken to the crock pot and add no liquid at all!
The chicken will make it’s own juices. Put the lid on the crock pot and cook for 8 hours on LOW.
A good dish to be served most especially when you have visitors around. I will try this at home.

ReplyDeleteExcellent rub that made great tasting grilled chicken. The only change I made was to reduce the amount of salt. Thank you Hugh!
ReplyDeleteGreat simple recipe. I took it to a potluck. I used pre-packaged real bacon bits and it still tasted great. This would be good with lettuce in the bottom too!
