Awesome Slow Cooker Chicken

Kuddos to the Husband for finding this totally awesome recipe. Oh so easy, oh so yummy, oh so little effort is required. Pat dry, mix, pour, turn on, go to work, come back, eat. Done! Oh, you will need to come up with something on the side. We had baked potatoes and steamed broccoli.
  • 1 (3 pound) whole chicken, skin removed
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1/3 cup soy sauce
  • 1/3 cup olive oil
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 2 tablespoons minced garlic
Remove skin from chicken and empty inner cavity of contents within. Pat chicken dry with a paper towel and place inside the slow cooker.

In a bowl, stir together all remaining ingredients. Pour mixture over chicken and cover.

Cook chicken on low setting for 8 hours or 4 hours on high setting.

P.S.: You will have a fair amount of chicken left over. I use it to make my MIL's chicken curry salad: shred chicken or chop into small pieces, add grapes (cut in half or in quarters), chopped nuts (almonds, pecans or walnuts), raisins (if desired) and chopped celery (if desired). Add enough sour cream and mayo (half and half in proportion) to get desired consistency. Generously sprinkle with curry and stir it all up. Serve on buns, in pitas or simply eat with fork.
