Instructions

  1. In a small bowl mix together the paprika, garlic, coriander, herbs, nutmeg, salt, pepper and the olive oil into a paste.
  2. Put the chicken in a bowl and rub the paste all over, including in the cavity.
  3. Place inside the Crockpot and cook on high for 3 ½ - 4 hours.
  4. Make sure you check the internal temperature of the chicken using a thermometer. Guidelines state meat is done once the internal temperature reaches at least 165 degrees / 74 degrees C.
  5. Remove the chicken from the Slow Cooker and set aside on a plate.
  6. Let the chicken rest for 10 minutes before carving and serving.
  7. For crispy skin, brown the chicken under the broiler for about 5-10 minutes.
