This sounds like an odd combination, but somehow it just works. The leftovers can be frozen, but usually this dish is devoured in one night at our house. It has very little prep time so it’s perfect a busy school night. Just add a couple of steamed veggies as side dishes and you can have dinner on the table in minutes.
Ingredients:
1 Whole Chicken
30-40 Cloves Of Garlic – peeled
1 Whole Lemon
1 White Onion – sliced
1/8 of a teaspoon each of marjoram, thyme, rosemary, savory, sage, oregano, basil or your favorite Italian seasoning blend
Directions:
Line the bottom of your slow cooker with onions and garlic
Wash the chicken under cold water and pat dry
Put the chicken over the onions and garlic
Squeeze lemon juice all over the chicken
Season the inside and outside of your bird with plenty of salt, pepper and the Italian seasoning blend
Put lemon halves inside the chicken
Cover and cook on low for 6 hours, checking on it every couple of hours
Place the chicken on a plate and shred the meat away off the bone. Add meat to the broth, the garlic and onions
Wow is that 30-40 cloves of garlic or 3-4 ..But I love the sound of the lemon garlic combo

30 to 40. It sounds like a lot, but it’s awesome. Roasted garlic has a milder flavor. My husband even likes to spread them on toast when we have it.

Not on odd combination at all – Madhur Jaffrey has a recipe “Lemony Chicken and Coriander”, which I have adapted to form my signature dish which you can read about in this post: https://aspi.blog/2017/06/19/scotland-thursday-supper-in-which-i-perpetrate-a-shameless-act-of-cultural-appropriation/
