I decided to throw it all in my crock. It worked well. My only complaint? Its Reeeally vinagar-y. I added about 1/2 cup of honey to cut the vinagar. It turned out great!! I also used red pepper flakes on accident but that accident was a successful one! Thanks for a great recipe Yooper!

Thank you so much for this recipe Yooper! It was easy to make and with the garlic it was superb! I didn't change a thing. The chicken was so moist! Thanks so much for the recipe Yooper ; )

I've made this a couple of times, and while I love the garlic quantity in it, the vinegar is a little too much, as other reviewers said. The first time I used apple cider vinegar, the second time I used white wine vinegar but only put 1/3C in and it was still a bit too strong. But overall it certainly is easy and doesn't taste bad...just strong.

Very easy to make and it smells wonderful while cooking! Unfortunately, the taste was not to our liking. I used 1/2 of the vinegar called for in the recipe and we thought it still had a very strong vinegar taste. It really seemed to overpower everything else.

This was a very simple to make dish. I koshered the chicken breasts in salted water for 3 hours, and after rinsing and cooking, the chicken was very moist and tender. My parents and I loved this dish. A must for garlic lovers. I served the dish with rice cooked with some lemon juice in the water. A definite plus!
