    A nice easy one, put a whole chicken in on medium power for about 4 hours. Then remove the skin and the bones (they should just fall out), pour off the fat and juices then shred the meat and add a bbq sauce of your choice, pulled chicken.

    Served in either buns, wraps, lettuce, with salad or rice.

    Boneless, skinless chicken breasts in the crockpot. Add a jar of mushroom spaghetti sauce and cook six hours. You can add fresh mushrooms too. Chicken cacciatore. Serve over whole wheat noodles or rice. This freezes well too.

    Kickin' Chicken Chili

    http://www.bhg.com/recipe/chicken/kickin-chicken-chili/

    Sodium is through the roof, but otherwise it's low fat, low cal. I always use fresh peppers and onions.

    I love wendy's chili so I found this recipe to make it at home. I put all the ingredients in the crock pot and simmer all day. I only use 1lb of lean ground beef though.

    Slowcooker Kashmiri Butter Chicken. (We call the Crockpot a Slowcooker)

    Unbelievably good, uses very little butter, has a rich sauce and low calorie. Very authentic! Could be cooked on stove also.
    Freezes well.

    Serves 4: c.301 Calories per serving using the mfp recipe calculator.

    2 onions quartered
    3 garlic cloves
    4cmfresh root ginger peeled (I use about 3tsp minced ginger).
    I large red chilli halved, seeds discarded (I leave this out because of kids).
    8 boneless skinless chicken thighs. (I used 480g skinless chicken breasts when calculating calories for this).
    1 tbsp sunflower oil.
    25g butter
    1tsp cumin seeds crushed
    1tsp fennel seeds crushed
    4 green cardamom pods crushed
    1 tsp paprika
    1 tsp ground turmeric
    ¼ tsp ground cinnamon
    300ml chicken stock
    1tbsp light muscovado sugar
    2 tbsp tomato puree
    5 tbsp double cream (optional - I use Avonmore 50% less fat cooking cream for cooking).
    To garnish: 2tbsp chopped coriander leaves and flaked almonds (if desired).

    Preheat slow cooker if your model requires it. Blend onions, garlic, ginger and chilli in a blender/processer (or chop v finely). Cut each chicken thigh into 4 pieces and brown using the oil. Remove to a plate. Melt butter in pan and add onion paste, cooking until it begins to colour. Stir in crushed seeds, crushed cardamom seeds and pods and ground spices. Cook for 1 minute, add stock, sugar, tomato puree, and salt. Bring to boil, stirring. Transfer chicken to slowcooker and pour sauce over. Cover and cook on LOW for 5-7hrs. Stir in cream if required before serving.
