Grandma Kreye's Roast Chicken
Chicken legs and breast
Season All
Chicken Grill Seasoning
If making Chicken Soup with leftovers:
Keep broth
Water
Garlic
Italian Seasonings
Noodles
Fresh chopped veggies: carrots, potatoes, etc.
Optional Chicken broth cube or salt
Crock Pot or 250 F
Start with a nice chicken. I use legs and chicken breast. This is best if there is skin on the chicken, but skinless works, too. Place in roasting pan or crock pot. Sprinkle season all over the top, and a little chicken grill seasoning. Cook at 250 F for 2 to 2 ½ hours, then 300 F for 30 to 45 minutes, then up to 350 F for last half hour. Keep covered. If it is not browning, uncover last 10 minutes.
Gravy- chicken gravy is gross. Just don't do it!
If you want to make soup from the leftover chicken, keep broth, and use it to make soup. Broth will keep for quite a while covered in the refrigerator. Just add water, garlic, Italian Seasonings, noodles, and fresh cut up vegetables like carrots, potatoes, ect, whatever you want. For additional flavor, you may need to add a chicken broth cube or salt, but the garlic powder and Italian Seasonings are usually enough. When you plan on doing this, it is best to cut up the leftover chicken and store it in the broth as the chicken retains more flavor.
