I have 3 boys who never like the same dinner, but they all loved it. There was none left over!

I made this recipe for Valentine's Day. I substitued Cream of Mushroom soup for the Cream of Chicken and sliced mushrooms because I had it on hand. I served it over rice and is was delicious! My family and I really enjoyed it and I passed the recipe on!

My Husband loves this! I always fix chicken in the crock pot and it's kinda boring, but this is really good! Everyone should give this a try.

This is as good as a leftover as it is the first day. I cut the chicken into bite-size pieces after it's cooked and serve it over noodles. Delicious

This was excellent, but on the off chance that someone has a really "hot" crockpot, I really don't think the chicken needs to cook for three hours. It may dry out in that time if it's not sitting in the marinade properly. Use your judgement, but it will cook in less time than that.

I have made this dish several times. It tends to be on the salty side. If you use lite creamcheese and low-sodium soup, you can improve the taste. My teenage son loves to make and eat this one!
