Can someone give me a recipe for cooking a whole chicken in a slow cooker?

[JoshandJamie]

I have a whole chicken. i have a slow cooker (which was given to me without a cookery/instruction book) so have no idea where to start. Can you cook a whole chicken in a slow cooker and if so how?

Thanks

Yep, just bung it in, put the lid on and cook on auto for abuout five hours, (or until the juices run clear. I nearly always cook chicken like that in the summer as I hate having the oven on when its hot. It also makes it SOOOOO moist.

sorry late to this conversation and new to slow cooking! can you talk me through it with step by step instructions pls? do you have to add water for example? tk u

try this from moneysavingexpert. it sounds very simple:
whole chicken

thank you ska - sounds so easy even I shld be able to do it!

When I do it I slice an onion and put it on the bottom. put some whole garlic cloves in the chicken and on top of the onion. Rub chicken with oil, paprika salt and some herbs

Bung in and cook for ages!

It really is that simple. Put the cooker on to auto, that heats it on high for about half anhour to warm the dish, then switches over to slow. After the dish has warmed up, place the chicken in the dish, (you might have to remove its legs with scissors first if it is very large and tuck them round the sides and then put the lid on. That's it, no water no nothing. Comes out so moist is absolutely delish

ok, so i'm going to get achicken and do this myself now!

My mum cook chicken like this she just chucks it in with a bit of water and what ever else she got in the fridge veg wise.
