This got mixed reviews at my house. I thought it was good but no one else really cared for it. I followed the recipe other then I used legs and thighs and I cooked mine on low for four hours. Hubby didn't think it had much of a taste to it. I did think it tasted better in a casserole the next day.

Made this for PAC Fall 2012. Good crockpot recipe! I wasn't sure if the recipe directions were correct as I read 6 hours on HIGH. I knew that wouldn't work for my crockpot so I put mine on low and got great results. Loved the leftovers in a chicken casserole and sandwiches. It's a keeper!

This was quite a tasty dish. I made and froze it for freezer tag. To freeze, cook in the crock pot as directed. Once chicken and sauce are reasonably cooled, transfer into a quart-sized freezer bag (use a gallon bag if in doubt). Release as much air as possible, label bag, and freeze flat for maximum storage space. I didnt know how best to reheat without drying out the chicken, so I cut the chicken up into chunks and cooked in a medium casserole dish in the microwave for about 5 minutes. Next time I will try reheating in the oven and see if there are any problems with the chicken getting dry. To complete the meal, I suggest serving with Recipe #133448 and Recipe #141437. Will definitely be making again!

I made this recipe last night and decided to broil it rather than slow-cook it (I have this fear of burning down the house when using such appliances). Anyhow, I TENDERIZED the chicken, dumped the ingredients into a Ziplock bag and marinated it for a few hours. With the broiler on high I cooked them 7 minutes on each side. They were very juicy and tender. So simple! Simplicity is a huge factor in deciding whether or not to add dishes to my "rotation". I was able to get dinner on the table in less than a half hour - pretty good considering I have a 2.5 yr old and 3 month old demanding attention. This one made the cut. Thanks for sharing

This was so easy and as you said, it smelled great while it was cooking. The combination of the Italian dressing and the onion soup mix made a very good sauce. Thanks for sharing.
