I got up early so I could put this in the crock pot before work and let it cook all day. First, I chopped up one onion and about ten cloves of garlic. Then it was time for the chicken. I read one blog that said she took off all of the skin before roasting it, but I decided I wanted the skin in there for flavor, even if I wasn't going to eat it. (Also, I started taking it off and it grossed me out.) I put the chicken in the crock pot, threw in the onions and garlic, and some broth. I had used about half a can of chicken broth earlier in the week so I put that in and then had to improvise with about half a can of beef broth. I ultimately liked that combo of flavors, the beef gave it an almost wine-like flavor. Then I added some sage, garlic, salt, and pepper and started cooking it on low.
Slow Cooked Chicken! |
I had actually only meant to cook it for about eight hours, but I ended up staying at work later so I cooked it for about ten. I think all of the flavors married nicely and it was a successful dish!

As a side note, I didn't feel like putting it away in tupperware when I was done, so I just put the entire crockpot in the fridge. Then I took it out the next day and all of the fat and broth had congealed into a nasty jelly. I recommend just taking care of it the night you cook it, don't wait!
