Asian Whole Chicken in Slow Cooker

village.green, Aug 27, 12:51am
Last night I found this handwritten recipe in one of my slow cooker recipe books and I've done it for tonight. Really nice if you like these sort of flavours.
1/2 cup chicken broth or stock
1/3 cup soy sauce
1/3 cup olive oil (I think this is too much)
1/4 cup honey
1 tsp wooster sauce
2 tsp balsamic vinegar
2 tsp lemon juice
1 tsp sesame oil
2 Tbs chopped garlic
1 star anise (optional)
Mix everything (except chicken) together in a bowl/jug.
Put whole chicken into slow cooker and pour over the above ingredients.
HIGH for 4 hours
LOW for 8 hours
Serve with noodles or rice and some steamed veges.

Yes it was delish. I served with rice noodles and stir fry beetroot leaves and stalks from the garden that needed using.
I just shredded the meat with two forks and poured some of the cooking liquor over.
