Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

Spray your crockpot with the nonstick spray, I personally prefer my 8 quart Crock Pot when I make the whole chicken.
Make at least four foil balls depending on how big your chicken is.
Remove the chicken guts and wash off with water, I also made sure to rinse out the inside cavity a bit.
Pat dry your whole chicken with a paper towel and place the chicken on a plate.
Season to taste with your seasoning salt, paprika, salt, and pepper.
Shake a bit over a plate and then place the whole chicken on the foil balls.
Be sure to place the chicken on the bottom side down meaning the breast side up.
Shake a bit of minced onion onto the chicken, my minced garlic did not stay on when I did it on the plate so I did more in the crockpot.
Cook on low for 6-8 hours
Ensure chicken is cooked to 165 degrees for food safety with a Food Thermometer to ensure its properly cooked.
