I used the baby red potatoes cut in half and this can be cooked on the low setting all day but the suggestion is for the High setting for a shorter period of time.

Slow Cooker Lemon Chicken with Potatoes and Mushrooms

Ingredients:

1 3 to 4 lb broiler/fryer
2 chicken bouillon cubes
1/2 large lemon or 1 small lemon
1/4 tsp paprika
3 Tbsp minced fresh flat leaf parsley
2 medium or 1 large onion, cut into wedges
2 cloves garlic, chopped
2 Tbsp soy sauce
1/4 tsp salt
1/8 tsp freshly ground black pepper
6 to 12 small Yellow Finn or Yukon Gold potatoes, unpeeled
6 oz fresh mushrooms, sliced ½ inch thick

Directions:

1. Put one bouillon cube inside the cavity of the chicken. Squeeze the lemon, reserving the juice. Put the lemon rinds in the cavity. Put the chicken the crock pot breast side up and sprinkle with paprika and parsley. Distribute the onion wedges and garlic around the chicken. Pour over the soy sauce and lemon juice and season with salt and pepper. Crumble the remaining bouillon cube and sprinkle that over the chicken as well. Top with the potatoes and mushrooms. Cover and cook on HIGH for 3 ½ to 4 ½ hours.

2. To serve discard the lemon halves and portion the potatoes, mushrooms, onions and chicken into shallow bowls or soup plates, discarding the skin and bones. Spoon some of the liquid over each serving.
