Time 5h15m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 sweet onion, sliced and separated into rings
1 (5 pound) whole chicken
1 (20 ounce) jar salsa

Steps:

  • Spread onion rings into the bottom of a slow cooker crock. Place chicken onto onion layer with breast-side facing down. Pour salsa over the chicken.
  • Cook on High until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 5 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  • Remove the chicken from slow cooker, cover with a doubled sheet of aluminum foil, and allow to rest in a warm area for 10 minutes before cutting.

This recipe was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I'm sure it would be great for people who like a little heat. The chicken was cooked perfectly, and the salsa was very flavorful.

This recipe is a great starting point, but I like to add my own personal touches. I usually add a can of black beans and a can of corn to the salsa, and I also like to top the chicken with shredded cheese before serving.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my chicken turned out dry. Not sure what went wrong.

This recipe was a disappointment. The chicken was dry and tough, and the salsa was bland. I won't be making this again.

I've made this recipe several times, and it's always a hit. The chicken is always cooked perfectly, and the salsa gives it a great flavor. I like to add a little bit of cumin and chili powder to the salsa for a little extra flavor. Yum!

This dish is so easy to make, and it's always a hit with my family. The chicken is so tender and flavorful, and the salsa adds a nice, tangy flavor. I like to serve it with rice and beans, but it's also great on its own. Highly recommend!

This recipe is a lifesaver on busy weeknights. I just throw everything in the slow cooker in the morning, and dinner is ready when I get home from work. The chicken is always cooked perfectly, and the salsa gives it a great flavor. I highly recommend
