Yield: 6 servings

6 chicken thighs, skin removed
1 cup spaghetti sauce
1 green pepper, chopped, about 4 ounces
1/2 pound mushrooms, sliced
1 small onion, diced, 2 1/2 ounces
2 tablespoons garlic
Salt and pepper, to taste

Put the chicken in a crockpot. Season with salt and pepper; top with the remaining ingredients. Season with more salt and pepper. Cook on LOW 7-8 hours. Serve the peppers and mushrooms over the chicken.

Freezing not recommended

Everyone liked this and it was very easy to make. I used thighs, but will try it with boneless breasts sometime. I took the meat off the bones before serving. Since you don't really have to eat the saucy liquid, I suspect that the carb count wouldn't be so high if you only ate the veggies. Most of the carbs come from the spaghetti sauce.

Yield: 10 servings

2 tsp.  salt
1 Tbsp.  paprika
2 tsp.  chili powder
1 tsp.  onion powder
1 tablespoon  fresh thyme leaves -- or 1 tsp. dried
1 tsp.  white pepper
1/2 tsp.  garlic powder
1/2 tsp.  black pepper
4 lbs.  chicken drumsticks -- skinned if desired
1  chopped onion

In a small bowl, thoroughly combine salt and all the spices. Rinse drumsticks and pat dry with paper towel. Rub the spice mixture into the chicken, skin side and bone side, making sure it is evenly distributed and pressed down deep into the skin. Place in a resealable plastic bag, seal, place in a baking pan to catch any drips, and refrigerate overnight.

Place the onions in the bottom of a 4 quart crockpot and top with the chicken and spices. Cook on LOW for 8-12 hours until very tender.
