Fragrant Lemon Rosemary Chicken

I was in and out of the house all day and every time I came home, my mouth watered in excitement to taste this chicken!!!  I had my Girl's Night Out dinner, but I tried it as soon as I walked in the door!  WOW WOW WOW!!!!!  The lemon and rosemary infused tons of flavor all throughout the chicken!  It was heaven in my mouth!!!!!  For my girl's night out girls, this would be PERFECT with the Lemon Tangerine Wine we tasted tonight!!!  Mmm mmmm Mmmmmmmmmm!  This was better than any store bought rotisserie chicken I've ever had!  Oh, and the skin was perfect!  NOT soggy at all!

I promise even the most beginning novice can make this chicken!  I've actually never made one in the slow cooker before.....not sure why!  It's SUPER easy!  Thanks to my good friend Jolyn at Bargains To Bounty, I knew whole roaster chickens were on sale this week at Kroger for $0.69/lb!  So, I rushed out to get some!  I'm so happy I did!

It's probably best I tell you now, you need some twine to tie your bird up a bit.  I found it in the "hardware" section of our local grocery chain.  It's super cheap and you can use it for ALL sorts of things, not just cooking.  If you've never trussed a chicken before, here's a great video showing how!  You will notice only one side of my bird is trussed!  I was seriously strapped for time!

Ok, ready for a super easy and yummy chicken recipe?!!!

Fragrant Lemon Rosemary Chicken

2-3 Tbsp. Poultry Seasoning

Aluminum Foil

Directions:

Ball up 4 pieces of aluminum foil and place in the bottom of your slow cooker insert.

Take out all of the giblets and rinse your bird under the faucet.  Pat it completely dry with paper towels.

Stuff the inside of the bird with your lemon wedges and sprigs of rosemary.

Truss your bird.

Rub it down with Olive Oil and then sprinkle your poultry seasoning on top all over.

Place your bird on top of the foil in the slow cooker insert.
