Crockpot Chicken

The best chicken ever and a meal ready when you get home.

Buy a whole chicken (Bones and all). You can usually get one of these for about $3.50. Stick it in the crockpot with a can of chicken broth. Season with either Rotiessere seasoning or Rosemary/Thyme or any dry seasoning you like. Crockpot on low for 8 hrs. It literally falls off the bone.

Don't be one of those people creeped out by bones. It is the bones that make it tender and natural. Serve with peas and dill gravy.

Dill gravy

1 and 1/2 T yogurt butter or Smart Balance
1 T Cornstarch
1/2 tsp salt (optional)
1/8 tsp pepper
1 Cup Milk
1 T dried Dill

Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in cornstarch, salt, and pepper. Slowly add milk, stirring constantly. Bring to a boil, continuing to stir. Boil one minute, stirring constantly. Add Dill and stir.

Left over chkn makes AWESOME bbq sandwiches.

Total meal cost for 2 assuming you have the herbs and cornstarch on hand - 1.30. Considering you get about 4 servings depending on the size of the chicken, total cost drops to about .95.  Make your own variations! That's the joy of cooking!
