Magic Pot Monday! 30 Min Microwave Chicken

30 Minutes= The Juiciest Chicken EVERRRRR!

Emergency! Lol, my original post disappeared when I tried to add another picture! Aghhh! COMPUTERS!!! Anyhow, I WAS trying to say is that we have all bought those gorgeous golden, premade rotisserie chickens from the grocery store at one time or another. BUT, YOU.....YES YOU, can make the same chicken in 30 minutes in your microwave!!! It is true!! You will barely even have to put your hands on the pasty looking bird, except for removing the neck and giblets and placing the bird in the "Magic Pot". Who eats those neck bones and giblets anyways???? Below is what you will need:

1 tbsp. of all purpose flour, 1 tsp paprika, 1/2 tsp garlic powder (I used granulated), 1/2 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp coarsely ground pepper and 1/4 tsp dried thyme.

Mix all your spices together and them spray the bird with olive oil and sprinkle your spice and herb mix on to the bird, covering it completely


THIS IS WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE OUT OF THE MICROWAVE....SEE GOLDEN AND DELICIOUS!!! My family raved about how juicy and delicious it was! SCORE!!!!
