For chicken or turkey, use the 15-minute poultry button. While volume doesn’t matter, density does.

What can I use if I don’t have a slow cooker?
You can use an oven as a slow cooker alternative. The temperature of a slow cooker is about 80 C on low and 90 ºC on high. At such low temperatures an oven will function a lot less well. If you use the oven as an alternative slow cooker, you will have to adjust the preparation a bit for many slow cooker recipes.
