My 4 year old ate this and loved it. Ya know, the one that says everything I make is horrible!? This is one of those meals that are slow cooking all day and it smells so delicious you already know you love it. This was uh-mazing. I wish I would have discovered this recipe sooner. The chicken was so moist and the first bite was so flavorful and delicious! And I love that this recipe only has 313 calories per serving! Delicious, easy, and good for you! Score!

  1. This is delicious. Was wondering, Can I use chicken tenders instead? Idk why but i don’t like breasts. Too thick for my taste. I imagine tenders would work with adjusted cooking times but not sure how long.

  2. Would there be any problem if I were to cube the chicken before adding to the crock pot instead of removing to cut up at the end?

  3. this sounds really good, thanks! Did you use green onions or white? The pic shows some green for garnish so wanted to check as the type of onion would really make a difference.

  4. Made this last night for my wife an overnight guest and myself. Ran home, through it in the crockpot , set the rice cooker (brown rice) to be ready in 2 hours and ran to the gym. Home again, shower, finished the dish and took my bows as a Master Chef. This is a keeper! Did it with the thighs and it was really good. Thanks for this.

    I am interested how you came up with you calorie count or if you have full nutritional information. You wrote 300 + calories and when I used my favorite program it came to over 500.

    Thanks again.
