Prepare the Softest Chicken Ever
Whisk marinade ingredients together. Trim excess fat from the chicken.
Smear marinade all over chicken, inside and outside. Place skin side down in a pan, cover, and refrigerate overnight.
Drizzle olive oil on the bottom of a six to eight-quart Crock-Pot. Slice onion thickly into half-circles and place in pot. Carefully place chicken, skin side down, on onions.
Scrub sweet potatoes and cut in half lengthwise. Place on and around the chicken.
Pour marinade over all. Turn on high and cook for five hours, or until ready.

At what point in this recipe would you freeze it?
Can this be made with chicken parts in the oven?
We haven't tested it, but I don't see why not. Make sure to cook the chicken low and slow!
Does the chicken get brown in the crockpot. Your picture looks very brown but did you brown it in frying pan first or just in crockpot>?
The recipe doesn't call for browning. Usually things turn brown in the crockpot due to the long cook time!
Can this be cooked in a slow cooker?
and if yes for how long?
Yes yes! A crock pot and slow cooker are the same :)
Can this be made on low for a longer time or its not recommended?
Yes, that should be fine!
