I am making this recipe now... So far the sauce is amazing! :
I added corn to the lemon rice and I will add just a touch of butter before I top it off with the chicken and sauce. I can't wait to chow down on this.

Oh, and I read the reviews about draining the oil - that is a wise thing to do. I did that and it came out perfect!

This was GREAT! After watching one of the shows on On Demand, my 11 yr olds helped make it. As it cooked in the slow cooker the yummy smell almost drove us crazy! I agree with the other reviews to drain some of the oil before you make the sauce. We made it with both the whole chicken thighs and boneless skinless and all of us agreed we liked it better with the boneless. I was out of canned tomato so we used fresh chopped tomatoes instead and I think I prefer it with the fresh.

And yes the seasoned chicken alone was wonderful and we chopped a few extra we made into a salad. The last few we cooked I had also added a pinch of cayenne.

This came out really good. My son is a picky eater and he loved it. I used boneless/skinless thighs. It's important to drain some of the oil from the pan before putting tomato paste in (the recipe doesn't specifically say to do this. The rice is also delicious.

YUCK. This sounded really good. I made it by the directions, without the rice, and what a mess this turned out to be. I'm new to the slow cooker, so didn't realize how useless browning the chicken first is. The end result is a gross, oily slop in the cooker because you can't really eat the soggy skin of the chicken anyway. I have to say that I did learn from this recipe: I will never make another slow cooker meal with any added oil. It's not necessary and pretty gross.Because I didn't make the lemon rice as a side I did add a little lemon juice to the pot and that cut the oil a tiny bit and added some nice flavor.

I loved this recipe, with a few exceptions. First of all, I'd suggest that once the chicken is browned, remove ALL of the oil used to brown the chicken from your pan BEFORE you add the broth and tomato paste, or the result with be an oily mess! I also added two large sliced portabello mushrooms and a coursely chopped yellow chili pepper to the vegetable mix (you could use any chili pepper(s, depending upon how spicy you would like your dish to be, yellow chili peppers are mild but add great depth of flavor Since I'm not a big fan of yogurt dressing, I used the leftovers (including the rice, to make a delicious soup, which was just scrumptious, instead of the pita salad she suggested! Thanks, Sandra Lee!

Plan ahead & have all ingredients, this dish is so yummy. I followed directions as Sandra stated except I baked the chicken in the oven for 2 hours @ 350 degrees. We really like the flour mixture for the chicken. I baked 3 without the sauce, in case the hubby didn't like the sauce. He ate two plates of this dinner! There was a lot of sauce left over so I froze it in a zip lock baggie. I will use it in chili, was too good to toss out. The rice was really different but very good with this main dish. I also warmed up some corn. Highly recommend this easy basic dish.
