Citrus Chicken in the Crock-pot

On Sunday nights I usually take a good look ahead at my menus for the week comparing them to the family calendar.  Why?  I want to be sure that the events of the week will allow for the preparation of the planned meals.  Last night was no different, and was well-timed as I needed to defrost a whole chicken overnight. 

This morning I got out my trusty crock-pot, rinsed the chicken and placed it in the crock.  I added 1 cup of orange juice and a packet of Fajita seasoning mix and set the pot to cook for 7 hours.

Dinner was done.

I did serve canned green beans and pita bread as sides.  So very simple, but flavorful and diet friendly sans the bread.
