Very flavorful dish that turned out quite dry after 5 hours on low setting in crock pot. Next time around I will definitely increase liquid from the recommended 1/4 cup to at least 3/4 cup.

I absolutely received raves when I made this dish. I added more garlic than called for, but if you like garlic, you can never have enough. I used low sodium chicken boullion granules as i have to watch my sodium intake.

I love this recipe! I usually add more lemon and more garlic. I also add a bit more water to make a sauce and serve it over rice. Very yummy!
