This might be the best recipe for chicken. Very easy to make....little preparation but wonderful results. Ingredients:
1 (3 1/2-4 lb) whole chickens |
kosher salt |
cracked white pepper |
1/2 cup diced onion |
1/4 cup diced carrot |
1/4 cup diced celery |
3 garlic cloves, peeled and smashed |
3 sprigs fresh thyme |
1 lemon, juice of |
4 teaspoons cornstarch |
Directions:
1. Rinse the chicken both inside and out under cool running water. Pat dry.
2. Season the chicken liberally both inside and out with salt and pepper. Place in a slow cooker.
3. Scatter the onions, carrots, celery, garlic, thyme, and lemon juice over top of the chicken. Cover the slow cooker and set the temperature to high. Cook for 6 hours, undisturbed.
4. Remove the chicken from the slow cooker, and pour the accumulated juices into a 2-cup heatproof container. Skim the fat from the top and transfer the liquid to a small saucepan.
5. Dissolve the cornstarch in a small bowl with 2 teaspoons of water and whisk to form a slurry. Whisk the slurry into the juices and bring to a boil over high heat. Cook until thickened, season with salt and pepper, and continue to cook an additional 4 to 5 minutes.
6. Cut the chicken into pieces and serve, with the thickened pan juices ladled over the top.
