Recipe FAQ:
You can definitely cook a frozen chicken in the slow cooker, but it is going to take an EXTRA 4-6 hours to cook your chicken. In my recipe, it will be harder because I season the chicken under the skin so that the flavors seep into the meat. This can't happen if your chicken is frozen.
It is not dangerous to cook chicken in a slow cooker. When the chicken is done, it is very important to check the internal temperature before eating. You want to make sure your chicken has an internal temperature of 165 degrees F.
