I made this one night on a whim, and added a softened and chopped up guajillo pepper to the vegable mixture. This is divine. I used thick cut boneless pork chops and instead of water, I boil my rice in chicken broth. Top the pork and rice with a good quality queso and you have a family favorite. It has become a weekly thing in my house.

This recipe certainly needs a little tweeking but it was extremely easy to make and the second run I really enjoyed it. I added Cumin, onion powder, cayanne, and chili powder. I used less oil than it said because I have a non-stick skillet and it turned out a little oily the first time (mostly my fault. I cut the liquid down to 1 1/2 cups as there was so much liquid (my first time that it turned out very soupy and wet. I added yellow bell pepper, 2 seedless jalepenos and a pablano pepper I had grilled and peeled. Sauteing the veggies gives them a better flavor before putting them in the crock-pot, however it's adding extra steps to a simple dish.

I am disappointed to see so many bad reviews for this dish. I made it exactly as recommended, EXCEPT I added seasoning, spice, salt, etc. TO TASTE. I know what I like and I know what my family likes, so there was no problem just adding some salt, garlic & onion powder, paprika & cayenne pepper as I felt necessary. I seasoned the veggies before cooking and seasoned the chicken the night before to lock in the flavor. Also, using olive oil instead of canola solves the "oily" issue.
Basically, I being negative about a recipe means that you don't know how to cook unless you are told exactly what to do. If you knew how to spice things up to your liking, you would love this dish. I did drop a star because I agree that if I did this exactly as told, it would have been bland. Luckily for me and my family, however, I knew how to cook it and we loved it!!!

Made this for dinner tonight and was not a fan at all. Bland despite all my efforts to jazz up the flavor. Basically tasted like stewed tomatoes with peppers from a can. My husband said the best part of dinner was the garden salad I made to go with it.

This recipe was really good! I didn't fry the chicken before the crock pot because as another person mentioned, it's a just a waste of time besides I like that fall off the bone texture. All together the flavor was excellent! I used chicken legs so this recipe works with any type of chicken.

This is fabulous! I made it for my family and also for guests. I garnished with the green olives, chopped avocado, and fresh tomatoes. Outstanding!

I love this dish! I was worried when I read the bad reviews but it came out delicious. I used butter instead of oil since I like the flavor better and I also added salt and pepper to the sauce aswell as onion powder, garlic powder, some cayenne powder, and chilli powder. Made some of my own rice and my hubby and I both loved it!

Disappointing! The soupy dish did not have much flavor and had too much oil (I used even less oil than directed. The dry rub did not really have that punch of flavor and the texture, ofcourse, was not crunchy since it has been in the slow cooker for a while. I was expecting like a chicken cacciatore type flavor, but, sadly, it was bland and a waste of cooking time. Sorry

Not impressed - too soupy, and the onion chunks were overpowering. Flavor was ok, but the textures weren't appealing. Ate it the first night, but couldn't bring myself to go back for leftovers; threw them out.
