CROCK POT ROASTED HERBES DE PROVENCE WHOLE CHICKEN
This chicken is so tender that it falls right off of the bones! Herbes de Provence is a wonderful spice to use on poultry, fish, and veggies (even potatoes). This chicken can also be roasted in the oven, but I prefer it cooked in the crock pot -it is more tender and flavorful when it is slow-cooked. Feel free to throw some additional veggies into the crock pot for a complete meal! Another recipe from a Suzanne Somers' cookbook (and then modified by me to cook in a crock pot).

ROASTED CHICKEN WITH HERBES DE PROVENCE
Herbs de Provence can be hard to find. Try one of the health food stores or gourmet stores that sell bulk spices in little, plastic bags. This seasoning makes a nice change from the usual flavors Americans use with chicken. Its different without being weird. Garlic and a dash of sherry rounds out the flavor for a simple but delicious meal.

Steps:
- Wash and prep chicken. Place in roaster.
- Peel the garlic clove by whacking it with the flat of a knife (yes, you could just take the peel off, but the smashing/bruising releases the flavor as well as removing the peel).
- Put the garlic into the chicken's cavity.
- Put 1/2 the sherry into the cavity and sprinkle half over the chicken's breast.
- Sprinkle the Herbs de Provence over the chicken.
- Roast, covered, at 350F for 60-90 minutes depending on the size of the chicken then remove the lid and roast uncovered another 15-30 minutes until the skin is crisp and the chicken is fully cooked.
- If you want a sauce either use the pan juices to make gravy or deglaze the pan with a little white wine. Either would be delicious.
Tips:
- Choose the right chicken: For the best results, use a whole chicken that weighs between 3 and 4 pounds.
- Prepare the chicken: Rinse the chicken inside and out and pat it dry. Remove any excess fat or skin.
- Make the seasoning: Combine the herbes de Provence, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder in a small bowl. Rub the seasoning all over the chicken, inside and out.
- Sear the chicken: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and sear it on all sides until golden brown. This will help to lock in the flavor.
- Cook the chicken: Transfer the chicken to a slow cooker. Add the chicken broth and white wine. Cover and cook on low for 8-10 hours, or until the chicken is cooked through.
- Serve the chicken: Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the slow cooker and let it rest for 10 minutes before carving. Serve with roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
