Oh YUM! Cold grey day here on Long Island and this sounded so promising. Gotta tell ya, it didn't disappoint. Used 4 bonless thighs cut in half and 2 boneless breasts cut into thirds( it weighed 2 1/2 lbs). Cooked it on High for 3 hours,turned it off and then let it sit for the last half hour. Sauce was excellent! I would however throw in a bit more chicken while you're at it.

You've got to be kidding me - this was AWESOME!!!! I've made a similar recipe with beef, but until I saw this - it never occured to me you could make this with chicken. (Although - I'm going to try this again with beef because I think this is a better recipe) The sauce couldn't be more pefect. I did omit the sugar, because I'm trying to limit my sugar intake - and it didn't affect the recipe at all. Incredible recipe kintryqtpi! Thank you for posting this. I will def. be making this again!
