Cooking chicken in the crockpot is the answer to convenient, delicious, healthy cooking. With just 5-10 minutes of effort there will be moist, flavorful chicken that's literally falling off the bone waiting for you a few hours later. Eat as is, or add it to soups, stews, wraps, salads, etc. Cooked crockpot chicken is always handy to have available.
Wash chicken.
Remove chicken skin. Organic chicken may be cooked with or without skin. I remove the skin because I use the chicken broth created during cooking as a base for delicious soups and stews. Removing the skin makes the remaining broth much lower in fat.
Place chicken into crockpot. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and ground mustard. Add lemon juice to pot and 1/2 cup purified water.
Cover crockpot and place on desired setting. Either set crockpot to low and cook for 8 hours or set to high and cook for 4 hours. Don't worry if your crockpot doesn't have a timer and you aren't home exactly at the time it's ready. The chicken can cook longer if needed. The longer it cooks, the more "fall off the bone" delicious it becomes!!
Notes: Try any seasoning combination that you like. It's hard to go wrong with crockpot chicken!
