Here's what you need:
A slow cooker
Frozen boneless skinless chicken breast
1 onion
BBQ sauce
2 shakes of liquid smoke
Salt & Pepper to taste
Potatoes (I'm using 5)
Aluminium foil.
Spray your crock with non stick cooking spray, just to make clean up easier.
Cut onion into big slices and layer on bottom of crock.
Place frozen chicken on top of onions.
Combine BBQ sauce, liquid smoke and salt & pepper together.
Cover with BBQ sauce mixture.
Then, the time saver:
Roll scrubbed potatoes in aluminum foil, tightly.
Lay on top of BBQ chicken.
Cover and cook on low for 8-10 hours.
To serve, carefully take potatoes out of foil and put on plate, then serve chicken. I cut the onion in big chunks because the boys don't care for them. I just leave them in the bottom of the crock to add flavor while the chicken is cooking.

Just add a can or corn, green beans or a salad. Dinner's done.
Easy!
As I've said before, it you're not comfortable cooking frozen chicken in the crock pot, don't do it. I have done it for years and have never had a problem. But that's just me.
I'm linking up with Janelle over at Comfy in the Kitchen.

One cool thing about blogging: I can learn new things. I never thought to bake my potatoes on TOP of my bbq chicken. It looks fabulous.
I do this all the time. When I worked full time, it was such a huge time saver for me.
I do this too - especially with my sticky chicken recipe but I also have two Crock pots so I will do a meal in one and baked potatoes in the other.
The chicken looks great! Came over from WLW.
Yum! That does look easy. Do you really leave the chicken frozen instead of thawing first? Can't wait to try it. Thanks!
I really do put the chicken in frozen. When I used to work full time outside the home, my chicken was always overcooked. I started putting it in frozen, and it was just right when I got home. I used to leave at 6am and get home at 4:30. It worked for me. I did frozen hot dogs with frozen hot dog sauce yesterday - all I had to do was add a bun after work. Easy.
