Crock Pot Spice Rub Chicken

Today’s Crock Pot post is from The Frugal Chicks.

So everyone makes new year’s resolutions, or as I call them goals, every new year. I chose to go Paleo this past January. I did not stick with it, but I am planning to go back to it because I felt so much better. I have MS, and this diet makes you feel so much better – just going gluten free is not the easiest thing in the world. I discovered this recipe during my paleo days.

Not only is it delish and versatile, but it is healthy too! I found this recipe in my Everyday Paleo cookbook by Sarah Fragoso. I have it on my nook, which makes cooking quite easy! My favorite way to eat this dish is on portabella mushrooms as sandwiches. Hope you love it as much as I do!!

Crock Pot Spice Rub Chicken

1 5-6 lb free range organic chicken – giblets removed, rinsed, and patted dry with paper towels
1 white onion sliced
1 tsp sea salt (optional)
2 tsp paprika
1 tsp cayenne
1 tsp white pepper
1 tsp poultry seasoning
1 tsp garlic powder

Cover the bottom of the crock pot with the sliced onions.
Mix all spices in a small bowl and then rub the spice mixture all over the whole chicken.
Place the spiced chicken on top of the onions in the crock pot.
Cover and cook on low for 5-6 hours (depending on your crock pot). No need for any liquid, the chicken will cook in it’s own juices.
Make sure you spoon the onions and a little bit of the juices over the chicken when you serve it.
You can eat it with veggies, as a taco, or I love it on portabella mushrooms as a sandwich.

Just found your website/blog from a friend’s link on FB. Although I don’t have children, I have been reading this non-stop for the past 30 minutes, like a good book you just can’t put down!

Hello,

I noticed while reading over your recipe that you have MS. I have some information on MS that you might be interested in.
I don’t like to just send information to someone without first asking for approval.

Please let me know if your interested and i will gladly send you the info;)

Have a Blessed day!!
Sher
