Simple Fall-Apart Crock Pot Chicken image

I came up with this recipe when I realized that I needed to use a whole chicken in the freezer. I did a cold water bath for an hour before I put it in the crock pot and it defrosted to the perfect point for me to work with. You may need to adjust your time based on a frozen/thawed chicken and your size. All I know is that this chicken fell apart in the crockpot before I could even serve it! I highly recommend green beans and mashed potatoes with this. And the broth can be used to make a gravy if you'd like

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but the sauce never thickened. It was more like a thin soup.

I accidentally used too much salt. The chicken was way too salty.

The chicken was a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more spices next time.
