Slow Cooker Roast Chicken
Roast chicken is delicious and perfectly feeds an entire family. Instead of grabbing one of the rotisserie at a store, make your own roast chicken at home using your slow cooker. This is a super easy and straightforward recipe that will yield you juicy, tender and richly flavored chicken.
Ingredients
Directions
- 1
Rub seasoning over your entire chicken (both the outside and the inside!) with the seasoning mix. Season more or less to your taste.
- 2
Place 4 large balls of aluminum foil on the bottom of your slow cooker and place the seasoned chicken on top of the balls so they are not touching the bottom of the slow cooker. Pour in chicken broth.
- 3
Cook for 4 hours on high or 6-8 hours on low. An extended time on low may have the chicken start to fall apart, so keep an eye on it towards the end of the cooking cycle. Cooking on high is preferred.

Remove from slow cooker, carve and serve!
