Jolean's Crock Pot Spanish Chicken

I love this recipe! Hubby brought home green olives by mistake and the first thing I thought of was this recipe. Haven't made it in years but I am going to make it this week. Thank you for posting here Jolean!

Great recipe! I love Spanish chicken and this is a great crockpot recipe. As Michelle said, if you don't like olive, this isn't for you. The green olives are the key ingredient in this recipe. I wasn't able to use a crockpot when cooking it this time. I had no large crockpot, due to Hurricane Ike. I prepared it in a large skillet on the stovetop and used chicken broth instead of beer. I drained the juice from the olives and used extra chicken broth to make up the difference in the liquid amount. I also used boneless chicken breast tenders instead of the whole boneless breasts and substituted rotini for the egg noodles. The sauce was delicious. I'm thinking of doubling it next time I make the recipe because we wished there had been a little more to put on the pasta.

This was a wonderful dish. I will say however, if you are lukewarm on lives, or do not like things a bit on the salty side this is NOT the dish for you. I, however love both, so this was right up my alley! I did sub boneless skinless thighs for the breasts and added a chopped onion and sauteed mushrooms for more veg. This is excellent served over buttered egg noodles. I enjoyed it so much I ate it for lunch and dinner one day! I felt the sauce "mellowed" over a day and the flavors melded more only adding to my enjoyment of this dish. I will make this again.

We liked this, but I don't know if I'd make it again. It had an unusual flavor- I felt like it needed more seasoning or less olives or something. I served this over rice and with a side of corn. The ease of preparation was nice on a busy day. Thanks for sharing.

I love this recipe!!! I got this recipe with my crock pot in the 80s and I used to make it all the time. I got married 10 years ago and my husband doesn't eat olives so I haven't made it since. I have cravings for it. He's traveling so I looked all morning but can't find the crock pot recipe booklet it was in and I was praying I would find it online. This is an answer to prayer. Thank you for making my day!

I made this over the weekend, exactly as it if posted. For me, it was way too salty, but....for my husband & son, it was to die for, therefore, the 5 stars. The loved everything about it and are already asking for it again. Thank you, Jolean! Now, I'm going to check out your other recipes..
