Take the aluminum foil and wad it tightly into small balls of about 3 or 4 inches. Then, place the balls in the slow cooker at the bottom. Take the chicken and rinse it out thoroughly, on the inside as well as the outside, under running water.
Then use the paper towels to pat the chicken dry. Use the salt, pepper and the paprika to season the chicken and then place the chicken on the aluminum balls that you placed earlier in the slow cooker.
