When you cook the whole chicken do you put any liquid in with it? Does it brown? Do you put it right on the bottom or do you put foil balls under it? Please do tell your secrets!
I put a little bit of water or broth in the bottom; no foil. You can sprinkle the chicken with lemon pepper or seasoned salt. Add a few veggies if you like: onion, carrots, celery will make the broth more flavorful. But it works fine without as well. Chicken doesn't get brown because you're cooking with moist heat. I wouldn't serve this whole, like a roasted chicken. It's just for boning and using g the meat. Delicious.1 -

Some of my family's favorites are:
Chicken tacos- 3 chicken breasts, a jar of salsa, and a package of taco seasoning. Toss everything in on low and let it cook all day. Then shred the chicken, mix it all together and serve. My kids assemble regular tacos with all the toppings. But I have this on top of a salad.
Chili - Brown a pound of ground beef, 1diced green pepper, and 1 diced onion. Add this to a crock pot. Then add a can of crushed tomatoes, a can of kidney beans, diced mushrooms, some pepperoni (optional), a little seasoned salt, pepper, paprika, and a whole lot of chili powder. Cook all day on low.
Pork shoulder roast and a large jar of sauerkraut. Just dump the jar on top of the roast and let it cook on low all day. Great on a sandwich or with a side of baked potatoes.0 -
Try Italian dressing, garlic over chicken breast. Serve with brown rice or pasta.0
