Morroccan Slow Cooker Poultry with Carrots

8 turkey drumettes or 2 lbs bone in chicken
1 lb baby carrots
1 tsp ground cumin
1/2 - 1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp salt
1/8 tsp ground black pepper
2 oz golden raisins
1 tbs sliced almonds per serving
1/2 c chopped cilantro

Wash poultry and put in a bowl. Sprinkle cumin, cinnamon, salt and pepper over poultry, and sir to coat. Put carrots in a layer on the bottom of the crock pot. Put coated poultry in, skin side up, and set the slow cooker to low for 6-8 hours or high for 4-5 hours adding raisins 15-30 minutes before serving. Serve over cooked couscous with almonds and cilantro.

The Verdict:

Yum! I used chunks of chicken breasts instead of bone in chicken so it came out a bit dry. If I make this again I'll definitely have to use whole breasts, we don't do dark meat here.
