According to instruction booklet, 4 to 5 pieces of "raw, serving size pieces, breaded" may be cooked at once, 340 degrees, for 13 to 18 minutes.

I think yes you can as long as it fits there. I'm not sure if there is any recepy for it but you can follow any recipe book you like. I never made a full chicken, but I did a lot of different dishes with chicken. Delicious meal. Completely different taste.

You should have no problem with the roast. However, since the foot print is round rather than oval you may have a problem with the chicken. If you cut up the chicken you will have no problem fitting it into the cooker.

Since I roasted an almost 4 lb chicken with vegetables in my 110, I would think you could; would like to try this myself with a turkey breast.

I'm vegan so I haven't attempted this but I would guess a small chicken or two Cornish hens might fit if that's ask you out in. Since the pot is round it would be an awkward fit for a whole chicken but cut pieces would fit nicely. There's a small recipe book with about 10 things in it. Nothing to shout about. A basic slow cooker recipe will do.

I cook my chickens at 425 for the first 20 minutes so I know the Norpro can be used at that temperature. I also use a convection oven. Could you roast four birds? I'm not sure four birds would fit in a regular sized house oven. Two for sure would fit, maybe three birds.

The depth of the pan is 2" deep. You can cook chicken parts not a whole chicken such as legs, thighs, and breasts. No problem with pork chops, meat loaf, candied sweet potatoes, ham slices, bacon and steaks. We love this Oster unit.

Sorry but I am not sure. I usually cook a whole chicken on it...about 3 to 5 lbs. You probably could put a small turkey or capon on it but I think the legs would be far over the sides so you would have to put it on a flat pan in the oven to catch the dripping juices. Hope that makes sense.sml

Our family has one of these pots dedicated to making bone broth. You can set it to cook bones for up to 12 hours at a time.

No. We use it for fish, chicken breast, and some times a pork chop. We have the saying, you can always cook more if it's not ready, but you can't uncook anything. We put mixed veggies on top with a sauce that drips down to the meat and cook from 7 to 10 minutes. If the veggies are to done (I like my crispy), then you can take the layer out and continue cooking the meat. It is very handy and we are considering buying a second one as we use it several times a week. Hope this answers you question. I really recommend the steamer if you like to eat healthy.

No, you can only put pieces of chicken in the basket. If you want to cook a whole chicken you would need to get the Compact or larger.

No, definitely not. Two chicken breasts or four thighs would work, or an intact fryer, but not a whole cut up chicken

Don't have a measuring tape on me right now but you can easely fry half of a big chicken with fries or potatos all at once or four big whole wings or two big breasts and two big legs all with fries. It is big enough I would say.

America's Test Kitchen has a recipe for "roasting" a whole chicken in a crockpot. Still, as NuJoi said, the skin won't be crispy. This unit (the four-quart) will saute, steam, or slow-cook. I'm actually going to cook New York Strip in mine tomorrow. Never done that before, but I'm hoping it will come out as tender as other meats I've cooked in this unit.
