Slow Cooker Whole Chicken

Cooking a whole chicken in the slow cooker is the easiest method to cook a chicken and results in tender, juicy chicken every single time. My version is made with za'atar and garlic powder but feel free to use any of your favorite seasonings or spices.

Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 pound chicken whole
  • ¼ cup za'atar spice blend
  • 2 tablespoons garlic powder
  • 4 teaspoons salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper optional

Instructions

  1. Create a little ring using tin foil and place in the bottom of the slow cooker. This acts as a roasting pan to keep the chicken elevated while it cooks.
  2. Pat the whole chicken dry with paper towel then coat evenly on all sides with the spices (za'atar through cayenne.) Place on top of tin foil ring then cover with lid. Cook on high for 4 hours or low for 8 hours.
  3. This is optional but before serving, I recommend placing the chicken on a baking sheet and broiling until the skin is crispy, about 5-6 minutes. Serve sliced or shred up to use any way you wish.

Notes

  • This is a great way to prep chicken for the week or to freeze. I like to shred it up and enjoy in soups, taco bowls, salads and more all week long.
