Slow Cooker Rotisserie Chicken

Would you like to come home to a roasted chicken that falls off the bone and is full of flavor? What if I told you that you could totally have that by just spending five minutes with your slow cooker in the morning? One of my favorite slow cooker meals of all time is my Slow Cooker Rotisserie Chicken Recipe.

Slow Cooker Rotisserie Chicken

I first blogged about Slow Cooker Rotisserie Chicken over on GOODEness Gracious years ago. I just love this simple recipe that I have adapted over the years from a great Weight Watchers tip.

I couldn’t believe when my fellow WW buds were telling me I could just toss a whole bird in a crockpot and it would turn out so amazing.

Up until then, the idea of cooking a whole chicken was a bit intimidating.

But then I tried it and it was ah-mazing and it couldn’t be easier?! Where had I been?

Slow Cooker Rotisserie Chicken

Slow Cooker Rotisserie Chicken is simply a whole chicken seasoned to taste with your favorite seasonings.

We love the fragrant woody flavor of fresh rosemary, but we have also made it with a flavorful bundle of poultry seasonings like sage and thyme. I have used fresh herbs and I have used dried herbs.

The fantastic thing is you can use what you have on hand. My go to is Lawry’s Seasoned Salt and Rosemary.

Lemon pepper chicken fan? You could totally adapt this recipe to pack that citrusy punch. Use your favorite lemon pepper seasoning, add a few slices of fresh lemon and ta-dah, fancy schmancy Lemon Pepper Chicken ;).

Slow Cooker Whole Chicken

One note: My family peels away the skin from this recipe. If you have a family that enjoys eating the skin, you may want to pop your whole chicken into a broiler safe pan and broil for a few minutes to crisp up the skin.

    Is the chicken thawed when you start this, or could you do it frozen?

      Blythe- I would not put it in frozen. I cook breasts and thighs from frozen, but for a whole bird I would be afraid it wouldn’t cook evenly enough to get the inside done properly.

      Updated: We no longer use frozen meat in a slow cooker due to food safety concerns.

    Do you not have to add any liquid to this recipe?

      Hi DeeDee! The chicken will add its own liquid. No need to add any. Enjoy!

    Would this work with just thighs and legs too?

      Definitely Mary! I would probably only cook for 5-6 hours.

    Hi Lynda! I would probably use Sage and/or Thyme. Enjoy!

    I’m not a big fan of rosemary, and was just wondering what other spice would go good with this chicken?
