I absolutely love this recipe. It has definitely become a favorite around here since it is so easy and delicious. I love a great crock pot recipe! I start with my chicken breasts frozen since I have them in the crock pot for around 10 hours. Also, I do not drain the sauce because the chicken is even better the next day after the sauce soaks in.

Easy and excellent! If you like acidic...I don't mind it at all! I added some spiral noodles and kept some of the sauce. My family LOVED IT!
