How long do you have to cook chicken it a crock pot?

The cooking time for chicken in a crock pot depends on the size and cut of the chicken, as well as the desired level of doneness. Here are some general guidelines:

Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breasts:

* Low setting (200°F): 4-6 hours

* High setting (300°F): 2-3 hours

Chicken Thighs or Drumsticks:

* Low setting (200°F): 6-8 hours

* High setting (300°F): 3-4 hours

Whole Chicken:

* Low setting (200°F): 6-8 hours

* High setting (300°F): 3-4 hours

Tips:

* Use a meat thermometer: To ensure the chicken is cooked through, use a meat thermometer to check for an internal temperature of 165°F.

* Start on low: It's generally recommended to start chicken on a low setting to avoid overcooking.

* Don't overcrowd the crock pot: Leave some space around the chicken for even cooking.

Note: These are just general guidelines, and cooking times may vary depending on factors such as the size and type of crock pot, the specific recipe, and the altitude. It's always best to check the chicken's internal temperature to ensure it's cooked to a safe temperature.
