Sharing Slow Cooker Robust Chicken Recipe

[Personal Chef]

I thought I'd share this recipe with all of you. I found it on allrecipes.com and it's one of my favorites. This recipe is quite tangy as written. I cut back on the vinegar to 3T. I also start with frozen chicken cook on low about 3-4 hours. Bon Appetit!

Thanks for sharing. I love slow cooker recipes. I'm confused about the cooking times, however.

I never have good success with chicken when I follow the cooking time in a recipe so I usually cut that time in half. If you have good luck cooking your chicken 6-8 hours, as the recipe states, then go ahead and use that cooking time. Otherwise try cooking your chicken 3-4 hours as I did. I hope this clarification helps.
