The first time I tested this recipe in the crockpot, a heavenly smell permeated the house all night. One of my guests wanted to know if I was serving chicken for breakfast, on a Tuesday morning, because he was willing to forgo his coffee!! It’s that good. I gave you two sets of instructions below, for regular baking and for a slow cooker, making it perfect for the day of a Chol Hamoed outing. Thanks, Shoshi!

Directions

Make the Chicken

  1. Clean chicken, wash, and pat dry. Mix all sauce ingredients together in a medium-sized bowl.

  2. To bake in the oven: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Pour half the sauce into a roasting pan. Add chicken, skin-side down. Pour remaining sauce over chicken. Bake covered for 1 and 1/2 hours. Uncover and bake another 1/2 an hour.

  3. To cook in a slow cooker: Place chicken in a slow cooker. Pour sauce over chicken, taking care that all pieces are smothered in sauce. Turn slow cooker to low and cook for eight hours. (I like my chicken fall-off-the-bone soft. You might find 6 hours to be sufficient.) Serve over rice.

Tips:

If you don’t use chicken soup mix, substitute with a spice of your choice. If you prefer a sweeter chicken, add one more tablespoon of honey.

Notes:

Chicken can be frozen.

How do you make this in a crock pot for Shabbos if it only cooks for 8 hours?

This sounds like it would have a sweet-&-sour profile — YUM!! I wonder how it would work with skinless chicken or chicken breast …?

Yes, it should work with any chicken cut.

Does it have a vinegar taste at all? My husband doesn't like vinegar but is OK with it as long as he doesn't taste it. And, I'm assuming it's regular white vinegar?

I have not tried this specific recipe before but usually, the strong vinegar flavor gets cooked out in the oven. It also only has 1 tbsp so I don't think it would be very strong. Yes, it is regular white vinegar.
