What's for dinner??

Sunday Chicken Supper!!! (:

The title says "Sunday", but it needs to read "Anyday". This is the easiest and tastiest way I cook chicken in my crock pot. 15 minute prep, turn it on low, head out the door to work...and 8 hours later dinner is on the table. And, oh it's SO GOOD!!

4 medium carrots, chopped into 2 inch pieces
1 medium onion, cut into 2 inch chunks
5-6 small red potatoes, quartered
1 boiler/fryer chicken, (3-3 and 1/2 pounds) cut up
4-5 bacon strips, cooked crispy and crumbled

1 and 1/2 cups hot water
2 teaspoons chicken bouillon granules
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
pinch of pepper

Layer the first 5 ingredients in the order listed. In a bowl, mix the water, bouillon and spices. Pour over the top of chicken. Do NOT stir.

Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours until veggies are tender and chicken juices run clear. Remove chicken, vegetables and serve with green beans and a salad. You may thicken juices for gravy, if you want.

So YUMMY!!! Be prepared to give out the recipe if you serve this to company.

Enjoy. (: (: (:
