📝 Preparation Steps

Set chicken on a rimmed baking sheet or other clean work surface. Remove giblets and pat chicken dry with paper towels.

In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, paprika, thyme, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt and pepper to taste (I like 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper) to make a paste.

olive oil2 tablespoonspaprika2 teaspoonsgarlic powder1 teaspoononion powder1 teaspoon

Rub spice mixture all over the chicken, then truss if desired (optional but recommended). Place in the bottom of a slow cooker. Cover and cook on HIGH for 3 to ⏱️ 4 hours or LOW for 6 to ⏱️ 8 hours. The internal temperature should reach 165 degrees when tested with a meat thermometer near the legs.

For browned skin (this step is optional), transfer an oven rack to the middle position and preheat broiler on HIGH. Transfer the cooked chicken to a rimmed baking sheet.

Broil on HIGH for 7 to ⏱️ 10 minutes, until the skin is golden and brown. Transfer the chicken to a carving board and tent with aluminum foil and allow to rest for ⏱️ 15 minutes. Carve and serve.
