Slow Cooker Whole Chicken is a great low carb dinner recipe! I put this in my crockpot the morning of our Savvy Saturday Conference and had been gone all day spending my time with all of you wonderful readers and followers who came to the conference. Afterwards I headed home and came through the door to such a savory aroma of this chicken cooking. It smelled amazing and I was ready to eat!
It was so simple to put together that morning before I headed out the door and I made some stuffing and a veggie to go with it. Be sure to try this to make your chicken the next time because it came out so moist and tender! I will use this method from now on instead of the oven! This is a must pin! This recipe is gluten free and Paleo too. If you are following the Keto Diet you will love this Keto Friendly Recipe! A great low carb side dish is Cauliflower Rice Recipe that is perfect to serve it with.
This Slow Cooker Whole Chicken Recipe is my favorite for Sunday Dinner. I hope your family enjoys this moist and juicy slow cooker whole chicken as much as we did. If you like a crispy skin you can place it in the over for a couple of minutes under broil to crisp it up. You might enjoy serving it with Crockpot Hashbrown Casserole. It is a delicious side dish recipe the whole family will enjoy.
