Instructions
  1. Turn your crock pot on to low and dump in the entire bag of baby carrots. Even out the layer to cover the bottom.
  2. Combine the salt, pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and thyme in a bowl and mix with a fork or spoon.
  3. Remove any contents left inside the chicken (ie. the liver and anything else by the store or your farmer).
  4. Place the chicken on a big plate and rub it down with olive oil (you can also use duck fat or ghee if you’d like). Starting with the chicken with it’s back facing up, sprinkle on about half of the seasonings and then rub in with your hands.
  5. Flip the chicken over, stuff the cavity with the onion and bay leaf, and then sprinkle on about two-thirds of the spices that are left. Again, rub them into the chicken skin so that it’s evenly coated.
  6. Place chicken breast-side up inside the crock pot. Sprinkle on the last bit of spices evenly. Cover the container with the lid and allow the crock pot to cook undisturbed for 8 to 10 hours.
  7. When the chicken is cooked, remove it and the carrots from the liquid that’s been produced. Be careful as the chicken will be so tender that it will probably want to completely fall apart. Discard the onion and bay leaf.
  8. Store the liquid in an airtight container in the fridge. Once it has cooked, you can skim off the fat to cook with (only if the chicken is organic would you use the fat). You can use the juices to cook grains or other vegetables. If you need to save it for later, you can freeze it.
  9. Enjoy the chicken as part of traditional meals or added to salads!
Recipe Notes

The added oil/fat isn’t necessary for the chicken to come out correctly. I’ve made it without the added olive oil as I had run out and it came out just as good.
