Number of Servings: 6

Ingredients

    4 pounds chicken, whole or parts, your choice
    1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
    1 teaspoon black pepper
    2 teaspoons Italian Herbs
    1 teaspoon smoked paprika
    4 vine-ripened tomatoes
    4 red potatoes
    1/2 cup white wine (you could use apple juice)
    couple sprigs of fresh Rosemary

Directions

Use a 6-quart slow cooker. In a small bowl, combine dry spices and set aside. Wash chicken, remove neck and giblets, and try to cut off as much skin as you can using poultry shears. If the chicken is fully thawed, this is much easier to do. Rub the seasoning mixture on all sides of the bird, inside and out and place into your stoneware. I chose to put the chicken breast-side down, to keep it extra moist.
Wash and cut the stemmy part out of each tomato, and plop on top. Add in the potatoes. Pour the white wine in, put fresh rosemary springs on chicken and cover the slow cooker. Cook on low for about 7 hours, or on high for 4-5. Carefully remove the bird from the pot. Use drippings w/ potatoes.
