Method
Step 1
In a 6-quart (6 L) slow cooker, combine carrots, Brussels sprouts, onion, garlic, and rosemary sprigs. Create a nest for the chicken.
Step 2
In a small mixing bowl, combine salt, black pepper, paprika, dried thyme, and olive oil. Stir well.
Step 3
Using papper towels, dry the inside and outside of the chicken. Spread the seasoning mixture evenly over the chicken. Arrange the chicken breast side up over the vegetables.

Turn off the cooker and open the lid. Carefully remove cooked chicken from the crock pot and transfer it to an aluminum foil-lined baking pan with a rack on top. Brush cooked chicken with extra olive oil. Broil 10-inch (25 cm) away from the top of the oven until skin is nicely browned and crisp, for about 5 minutes.
Step 6
Remove roasted chicken from the oven and transfer it to a serving plate. Set aside.
Step 7
Remove cooked vegetables from the slow cooker and transfer them to the same foil-lined baking pan. Broil for 8-10 minutes.
