Put raw whole chicken in a slow cooker with these 3 ingredients. It’s better than rotisserie.

Instructions:

1. Prep the Chicken: Rinse and pat dry (this helps the skin crisp up later).

2. Season: Rub the outside with Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Stuff the cavity with lemon slices and minced garlic.

3. Slow Cook: Place breast-side up in the slow cooker. Cover and cook on LOW for 6-8 hours (or HIGH for 4-5 hours).

4. Optional Crisp-Up: For golden skin, transfer to a baking sheet and broil for 3-5 minutes.

5. Rest & Serve: Let it rest 10 minutes before carving.

Serving Ideas:

• Light & Fresh: Serve with a crisp green salad and roasted veggies.

• Comforting: Pair with mashed potatoes and buttery rolls.

• Meal Prep: Shred leftovers for tacos, soups, or sandwiches.

Pro Tips:

• Extra Flavor: Add a splash of white wine or chicken broth to the slow cooker.

• Herb Swap: Try rosemary, thyme, or smoked paprika for a different twist.

• Crispy Skin Hack: Pat the skin very dry before seasoning, or broil at the end.
