Yum, I used white wine 'cause that's what I had.

It was ok, but not great. Yes, I did end up with purple chicken, but the kids thought that was cool. It seemed to be missing... something, but I don't know what. My chicken did end up a little dry. I used boneless, skinless breasts. Maybe it works a little better with skin on chicken.

I made this a while ago and froze it. I thawed it out overnight and cooked it on low all day in my crockpot. I used red wine but my chicken wasn't purple after it cooked all day long. My husband threw in some carrots and a few whole mushrooms to the crock pot. The shrooms soaked up the flavor from the broth and was sooooo yummy. We served it over rice and there were no leftovers.

This is a difficult one to rate. The taste was fine, but my seven year old took one look at it, said, "It's PURPLE!" and refused to eat it. If I made it again I would not use red wine as the color apparently is not acceptable to my child. Other than that, it was not bad.

This chicken has a mild but pleasant taste. I've made it with whatever wine I have open, and it tastes fine with white wine or champagne. So easy to throw together, as welll!
