Directions
1Make a cut in a lemon and stuff it with 1-2 cloves of garlic
2Place the lemon inside the chicken's 'clacker' ... that is it's cavity *wink*
3Combine the juice of a 2nd lemon with quarter cup each of honey and soy sauce.
4Pour over chicken and cook on low 6 hrs or until cooked through (varies between slow cookers)
5I keep spooning liquid over during cooking to achieve this rich color
6Thicken liquid with corn flour ( 1-2 tablespoons made into a paste and stirred into the slow cooker liquid) at the end for an amazing sauce.

That looks very appetising. Where did you get sling from?

Can you lay some baking paper on the bottom and up the sides to make removing the chicken easier or would that not work?

Did this last night and added a teaspoon of ginger and garlic to the sauce as well…. so tender and delicious.

I’d give that size and extra hour Kylie 🙂 Just test the meat in the centre of course to be sure before you decide it’s done x

Hi Paulene, just wondering if the cooking time would be the same for a 3kg chook? Thanks 🙂

The first time I slow cooked a chicken it was using this recipe, and the chicken was delicious! I had a smaller slow cooker at the time and couldn’t fit a spoon down the side to baste with the liquid, so used a 10ml syringe from the chemist and that worked haha. I have done this with veggies down the bottom but family found the flavour of said veggies a bit intense – probably personal taste on that one :).

We have had many versions (minus ingredients due to allergies) of Clacker Chicken before but tonight we had the original recipe using a soy sauce replacement and it was fantastic. Definitely doing it more often now as it is so easy and delicious 🙂

What can I say, colour and flavour amazing. I did baste several times during cooking as recommended and got the beautiful colour as pictured. Very easy recipe as well so a winner here

Hi Narelle … I ordered mine on Ebay by searching ‘turkey sling’ or ‘silicone turkey sling’
Some kitchen shops and other online sellers would have them too 🙂
