Paprika Roast Chicken
Serving: 1
Ingredients
- 2kg whole chicken
- 1 tablespoon paprika
- 1 tablespoon salt
- 1 tablespoon pepper
- oil
- Lemon
- - onion
Instructions
- Make a rub out of the paprika, salt, pepper and oil just to combine.
- Rub over the whole chicken with the paprika rub ensuring full coverage.
- Then cut up the lemon and onion into wedges and stuff in the chickens cavity (depending on the size of the lemon and onion you may not be able to fit it all in so just fill until the cavity is full).
- Then place in the slow cooker on low for 8 hours.
Notes
- I like to place foil straps under my chicken to make for easier lifting once cooked.
- The chicken produces lovely juices during cooking which i strain and thicken using cornflour and water for an amazing gravy!!
- Enjoy with roast vegetables!! Yum!

If my chicken is only 1kg how long is cooking time?
Something different . Had some good flavours 🙂
I’ve got his cooking now and it smells fantastic.
Sounds amazing Does the chicken brown in the slow cooker?
Not brown as such like an oven. When using ones with marinade type sauce I baste often over the chicken during cooking to get that rich colour 🙂
Alternatively you can give it a blast in the oven at the end if you want to crisp up a bit
It was delicious and full of flavour. The onion and lemon really added to it.
Whole family enjoyed this one, and lots of left overs to use in other meals 🙂
This was an easy and tasty way to cook a whole chicken. The meat was nice and tender. I halved the rub ingredients as my chicken was only 1kg and cooked it for 5 hours on low. I served with baked kumara and garden fresh salad. Definitely make again.
