Absolutely delicious! I cooked it 4 hrs on high. I added slightly more garlic and used jamie oliver balsamic glaze. I free poured the vinegar to what I felt was the right amount. We also used breast meat which held up so well and didn’t shred but was perfect.

This recipe has no flavor! The spices and balsamic vinegar aren’t enough to properly flavor the dish. Very disappointed! I won’t make it again!

I don’t think this could’ve been great even when tweaking the recipe. I read some of the tips and added a bit of honey and maple syrup to give it more flavor. A bit Coq au Vin flavor The dish was edible enough to that we didn’t want to go out to dinner but would never make this dish again.

Easily my new favorite thing to cook now. The green beans are the best part but maybe add the chicken between starting it and the green beans. It dries out. Adding potatoes works well too.
