I didn't have any white wine when I made this, but substituted mead instead. It was delicious!

I used chicken broth instead of the wine, and used breast meat instead of drumsticks .. Very good!! oh and I didn't marinate it either ..

I marinated about 2 hours in the crock itself (was pressed for time, & out of bags). Used Sutter Home White Zinfandel. It smelled heavenly cooking, and the meat was falling off the bone and not at all tough, but I was disappointed with the flavor - it tasted like plain chicken! (And grocery store chickens don't taste like much ...) Maybe with free-range chicken, a decent wine, fresh lemon juice & rosemary, the results would be better, but I won't be making it again (not even for the smell).

This was quite bland. I used fresh lemon juice and followed the recipe exactly but found the chicken had no flavour. Was just "plain" tasting. It wasn't bad but it wasn't as I had imagined. Sorry!

I love this recipe, thank you so much. Such a nice change to Chicken Legs. My kids gobbled this up in no time, I'm going to have to make a double batch the next time, because they all wanted more.
