Whole Crock Pot Chicken

Recipe #95032 | ½ day | 10 min prep | add private note

By: MizEmerilLagasse
Jul 5, 2004

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!

SERVES 4 -6 , 1 chicken (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Place the chicken and the mushrooms in a crock pot set to low.
  2. 2
    (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).
  3. 3
    Place all the other ingredients in a food processor (I use one mini food processor) and blend them into a paste.
  4. 4
    Pour the paste over the chicken and mushrooms, cover with the lid, and let it cook for about 10 hours ENJOY.
  5. 5
    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.
  6. 6
    Also, the stock that the chicken makes is GREAT for chicken noodle soup!

I've made this 3 times now, and love how easy and tasty and tender it is! I've made it with and without the mushrooms-either way was good. One thing I wonder-is the chicken still frozen when it's put in the crock pot? I thawed mine in the frig overnight, then cooked about 9 hours. Everyone in my house liked it! Thanks!

    I left my chicken in the crockpot on low for 12 hours and it was AMAZING. The chicken was almost fully covered in broth. I bought some Archer Farms Wild Mushroom Rissoto from Target and used the broth to boil the rice... and shredded some of the chicken and mixed it in... very yummy. I did not use a frozen chicken, mine was fresh. Used Whole Baby Portobello mushrooms! I don't even care for rosemary, and it was not over powering like most dishes with rosemary are. Great, easy, and cheap, recipe!

    Such and easy to prepare an elegant and tender chicken! My chicken was only half frozen (had to remove the giblet pouch). I added wedges of onions on the bottom with the mushrooms and I also used my mini processor for the paste. It took my new crockpot about 5 1/2 hours on low (it runs really hot) and the juices are a delight! After the chicken was done, I removed some of the juices and used it to prepare rice (served on the side). Thank you for a great recipe!

    Made this for supper last week. The aroma was such that we could hardly wait to get the chicken to the table. I partially thawed the chicken to assure removal of the giblets. the honey and the flavorful seasonings, with the slow cooker doing all the work made for a wonderfully delicious meal. I suspect this recipe done in the oven would also be a taste sensation! I will definitely be making this again.
