Ingredients
1 whole, raw chicken (mine was 2kg approximately) *do not cook from frozen*
1 x 35g taco seasoning powder packet
Instructions
Place chicken directly onto base of slow cooker, breast down
Make 8-10 piercings over the chicken with a sharp knife tip
Sprinkle 2/3 of taco seasoning over the chicken and rub into chicken and into cuts on the chicken
Sprinkle remainder of seasoning on chicken to finish
Cook on AUTO for 4hrs
Lovely served with salad and optional dollop of sour cream
NOTES
I spooned some of the cooking juices over the chicken 2-3 times during cooking
Auto cooks for 2hrs on high then it becomes low
If you don't have auto you could alternatively cook it on LOW for approx 5hrs
Breast down cooking makes for a moist chicken breast when served
I use two egg flips to get under each end of the chicken to lift it out when cooked
You could cook it on a trivet or in a chicken sling if you prefer
