• 3-4 lb. whole chicken
• 1 C. chicken broth
• 2-3 Sliced Onions (I use Maui onions).
• Several Stalks of Celery, cut into 1-in. pieces
• Several carrots, cut into 1-inch pieces or use small carrots
• Sweet basil
• Curry (optional)

Put onions, celery, and carrots in the bottom of the crock-pot (important - veggies take longer to cook than meat). Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Put a 3-4 lb. chicken whole in crock-pot. Sprinkle with sweet basil (and curry if you like). Pour chicken broth over chicken. Cook on low for 8 to 9 hours or high for 4 to 5 hours. The only problem is the chicken is so good you don't want to stop eating it, be careful of the bones (they get soft) Enjoy!!
