Instructions
- Make a ring out of aluminum foil and place this in the bottom of your crockpot and place the chicken on top.
- Mix the paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, oregano, and chili powder together in a small bowl then sprinkle them over the chicken. Put the lid on the crockpot and set it on high for 4 hours or low for 8 hours. (see notes)
- Remove the chicken from the crockpot. Pour the liquid in the pot into a small frying pan and bring it to a boil. Whisk the tapioca starch with 1 tablespoon of cold water and add it to the pan. Whisk until the gravy thickens.
Optional step
- If you'd like crispy skin, place the chicken on a baking sheet or low-sided pan and broil it for about 5 minutes. Let the chicken rest for 10 minutes before you carve it.
Notes
- If you want to cook the chicken on low for 8 hours, start it on high for 1 hour first to ensure it will be fully cooked.
- To check if the chicken is done, insert an instant-read meat thermometer into the thickest part of the thigh, making sure not to touch the bone. If it reads 165 degrees Fahrenheit, it is safe to eat.
