  • Cover the bottom of your crock pot with half of your diced veggies and lay your chicken on top of them
  • Place 1 clove of garlic and your 2 un-diced sprigs of thyme inside the bird
  • Now sprinkle your diced thyme and remaining chopped veggies over the top of your chicken
  • Juice a fresh lemon over the chicken and then place the lemon halves inside the cavity of the chicken
