Method

1
Cut the potatoes into 3 cm wedges and put them in the bottom of the slow cooker with the onion, garlic, salt and pepper.
2
Season the chicken with salt and pepper. If you like, brown it in a hot pan for 3 minutes: it gives a nicer colour and a fuller flavour.
3
Lay the chicken on the potatoes. Whisk the lemon juice, olive oil, stock, oregano and thyme together and pour over.
4
Cook with the lid on for 5–6 hours on LOW or 3 hours on HIGH, until the potatoes are soft and the chicken reaches 75 °C.
5
Just before serving, grate the lemon zest over the top and spoon the juices through the potatoes. Serve with yoghurt (optional) and cucumber (optional).
