Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme Crock-Pot Chicken

Does this make you start singing the Simon and Garfunkel song "Scarborough Fair/Canticle" ?  It does me!  Such great musicians!  

Anyway, back to food....so, I usually make The Best Whole Chicken in a Crock Pot, but we were in the mood for a change.  Also, we attended a party recently and my friend made this amazing  turkey in the crock pot that was seasoned with sage and thyme, so it got me in the mood for a similar recipe.  I actually had planned on cooking a turkey in the crock pot, but to my surprise a whole turkey was twice as much as a whole chicken (that shows you how often I buy a whole turkey)!  I made several changes to the recipe I found online, but here's the original recipe from Tablespoon.com if you want to check it out too: Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme Turkey Breast.  

We've been enjoying this chicken on sandwiches and by itself.  Hope you like it too!
