Slow Cooker Chicken and Pumpkin

Not fancy, just a homestyle rustic one pot meal! Anybody still got pumpkin?

Ingredients:

3 lb chicken

1 onion, quartered

2 cups pumpkin (or other winter squash), cut in chunks

3 medium potatoes, quartered

2 tsps garlic powder

1 tsp dry minced onion

2 tbsps BBQ sauce

1 tbsp maple syrup

salt and pepper to taste

Spray cooking oil in the crock pot then add the onion and pumpkin. Salt and pepper the inside of the chicken and sit it on top of the vegetables. Combine the BBQ sauce and maple syrup and brush over the chicken. Add the quartered potatoes around the chicken and sprinkle everything with garlic powder and dry minced onion.

Cover and slow cook on high for 3-4 hours or until vegetables are tender and the chicken's internal temperature reads 165°F.

Serves 4
