Delicious. We'll make this again and again for sure. -
This was a really tasty dish. I liked it a bit more than my husband but we both enjoyed it. I used boneless/skinless chicken breasts, and 5 small potatoes. I doubled the garlic and cooked with frozen chicken breasts on low for 5.5 hours and it was perfectly cooked. I served this with a side of pasta to serve the sauce over (since my kids don't like potatoes). The smell while it was cooking was wonderful. Will make this one again. Really enjoyed it. Thanks for posting! -
Really wonderful! I used 1/2 cup of dry white wine instead of the chicken broth and added some minced garlic. A real hit. -
This is terrific and the crock pot is great in the summer. My changes were: I used multi colored peppers instead of just green (because I had them), almond stuffed olives (same reason) and chicken breast (ditto). A recipe can't get much easier, the toughest thing to do was peel the spud. You just chuck it all together turn the crock on and let it go. It comes out with a lovely mild flavor..Oh, and I didn't add any salt (olives are very salty and I used 4 big ones in a single serving amount). This will be great at any time of the year. Thank you Sage for a real winner.

I love to cook, read recipe books and food magazines,spend time in kitchen stores, grocery stores, gourmet shops, learning new cooking techniques, trying new kitchen gadgets,tasting exotic foods,enjoying a wonderful meal. I've always had a herb garden; now I have containers on my patio with my must have herbs. It seems, everything tastes better with fresh herbs!
