My new hangout on Saturday mornings is the Farmer's Market. It's like a big party. People even bring their dogs. There are food samples, fresh bakery items, cheeses, pomegranate iced tea, beads, someone writing on-the-spot poems, and oh, vegetables too. I recently started to buy my meat, chicken and eggs there because I read The Omnivore's Dilemma. Need I say more? I bought a whole chicken from Dewberry Farms and it really was tasty.
You know how the pre-roasted chickens at the grocery store can be swimming in grease? The chicken from the Farmer's Market was juicy and tender and not greasy at all. Here is the simple recipe that I found on the internet at http://www.csppcooks.pbworks.com/. Put that crock pot to work so you don't have to!
Crock Pot Chicken Recipe:
4 tsp salt
2 tsp paprika
1 tsp cayenne
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp thyme
1 tsp white pepper
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp black pepper
1 medium or large roasting chicken
1-2 sliced onions
1 sliced lemon
Put onions in the bottom of the crockpot. Stuff the lemon slices inside the chicken cavity. Mix the spices together and rub all over the chicken liberally. Place chicken on top of onions in the crockpot. Cook on high for 4-5 hours or low for 8 hours. Enjoy!
