This was awesome! Such a great recipe, printed and saved to my recipe book. Only thing I changed was that I used fresh potatoes, boiled them, and then added them in. The rotisserie chicken added tenderness and extra flavor. Will definitely be keeping this recipe and throwing it into our rotation!

i made this last night and it was by far the best i've ever made! i made them in individual crocks like i do French onion soup and it was perfect. i did the bottom crust (first time i've done that) and it was ideal! Winner Winner Chicken Dinner!
