A delicious, simple dish that brings the flavor of deli rotisserie chicken right into your home. Tender, juicy chicken with aromatic spices, perfect for busy weeknight meals.

Ingredients

  • 1 whole chicken (3-4 lbs)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon onion powder
  • 1 tablespoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary

Instructions

  1. Prepare the chicken: Start by rinsing the whole chicken under cold water and patting it dry with paper towels.
  2. Add olive oil: Rub the entire chicken with olive oil.
  3. Mix the spices: In a small bowl, combine garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, thyme, and rosemary.
  4. Season the chicken: Generously rub the spice mixture all over the chicken, including inside the cavity.
  5. Cook the chicken: Place the seasoned chicken in the slow cooker. Cover tightly and set to low for 6-8 hours or high for 4-5 hours.
  6. Check for doneness: The chicken is ready when the juices run clear and the internal temperature reaches at least 165°F (75°C).
  7. Rest before carving: Remove the chicken from the slow cooker and let it rest for about 10 minutes before carving.

Notes

Make sure to use a meat thermometer for perfect doneness. Let the chicken rest before carving to retain juices.
