- 1 whole chicken (5 pounds)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ¼ teaspoon fresh ground black pepper

Tie the legs together with butcher twine. Optionally, you can also truss the whole chicken.
Rub olive oil over the skin of the chicken then lightly dust with salt. Sprinkle the remaining seasonings on top.
Oven Method
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Place three cups of water in a rimmed baking pan and set a wire rack over it. Set the chicken on the wire rack and place in the oven for 90 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees.
Slow Cooker Method
Place chicken in the slow cooker, cover, and set on high heat. Cook 3-4 hours or until the chicken reaches 165 degrees.
Turn the oven broiler on high.
Remove the chicken from the slow cooker and set on a baking pan. Place directly under the broiler and cook until the skin crisps up.
