Attention friends list! and whoever.

I need some help.

Namely, I'm in need of NON-SUCKY CROCK-POT RECIPES that:

- can cook for like 7-8 hours on low,

- involve chicken (or anything but that's what I have on hand)

- don't require hard-to-find or wasteful* ingredients

- don't take 10 hours of prep.

...do these exist? Bueller?

Real post later. Doing homework.

*By which I mean, I don't want to go buy an entire thing of bacon for like four strips' worth in a recipe.

Chicken crock pot recipes

Not on your friends' list, but you are on my husband's.

First: put as many frozen chicken breasts (frozen is key) as will fit in your crock pot. Pour over them an appropriate amount of your favorite Italian salad dressing. Cook on low 7 to 10 hours.

Second: take the innards out of a whole chicken, if it has any. Prick holes in a lemon and stuff into the chicken (you can cut it into pieces instead, to make it fit). Rub a cut garlic clove over the chicken skin. Cook on low 7 to 10 hours.

These are both easy and delicious, I've used them many times.

Oooh, the whole chicken one sounds good. You don't have to add any liquid other than the lemon? Does the chicken skin end up crispy, by any chance?

I've been trying to figure out what to do with chicken in a crockpot :)

Nope, sorry--there's enough water that it steams more than roasts. You have to have dry heat for crispy skin; with the lid on it steams, with the lid off it's not really a crock pot (all the heat just escapes).
