Step 1

Heat olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.

Step 2

Rinse chicken and dry thoroughly.

Step 3

Clean out the chicken cavity.

Step 4

Using the handle of a wooden spoon, carefully insert it underneath the skin, beginning at the neck. Slowly separate the skin from the meat without tearing through the skin. Set aside.

Step 5

In a small bowl, combine butter and lemon pepper; mash and mix with a fork until completely incorporated.

Step 6

Rub the prepared butter under the skin, around the entire bird, out to the thighs and legs, and on top of the skin. I find it easier to spoon a large chunk of the butter under the skin; then I use my fingers to spread it around by rubbing the chicken on top.

Step 7

Add chicken to the skillet and cook 8 minutes per side.

Step 8

Remove from heat.

Step 9

Pierce the lemon all over with a fork and place it inside the cleaned out cavity.

Step 10

Combine lemon juice, honey and orange juice in a small bowl; whisk well.

Step 11

Transfer chicken to the crock pot, pour the prepared honey sauce over it, and cook on LOW for 6 to 7 hours, or on HIGH for 4 to 5 hours.

Step 12

Carefully remove the lemon from the cavity and squeeze the juice out all over the chicken.

Step 13

Serve.
