Very easy and extremely tasty. The only thing I did differently is that I added jalapenos to add a little bit of a "kick". Kids love it as well, a keeper for sure.

I don't make anything that calls for canned soup. No one needs all that sodium.

I seasoned and overseasoned this dish at every turn. Still it was extremely bland. This happens with crockpot recipes sometimes, but still a bit of a disappointment.

Comfort food! Makes it seem you've been in your kitchen all day. Add a salad and some yeast rolls and you'll have your family a feast! Love it!

Very tasty, it made a delicious gravy and chicken was very tender. I read reviews and cooked longer than shown on recipe so potatoes were fine. Also, I had no green chiles, only had some Rotel tomatoes w/green chiles so opened them up and picked out the green chiles - it was just right amount of flavor and heat for us. Definitely will make again - also I assumed by Chicken Seasoning they meant poiultry seasoning t

Edit:I followed the tips from other reviewers to avoid having tough veggies. I cooked the veggies and half of the sauce for 1.5 hours on HIGH (4hr setting) and cooked for another 2.5 hours on LOW (8 hr setting) after adding in the chicken. I also added about a cup of fresh green beans I had in my fridge. My fiance absolutely loved it since it reminded him of mom's home cooking. I personally thought it was a little bland for my taste but I like everything spicy. Forgot to add some onions as other reviewers also mentioned but will try to remember next time.

A winner, but jccbaker, I gotta ask--3 1/2 hrs in the pressure cooker???? Really!

I think not. And you couldn't peek with a pressure cooker, as it doesn't open until the pressure comes down. U R Confused, lol.

Maybe my slow cooker cooks very slow, but the potatoes were still hard after 3 1/2 hours. I took the chicken out and transfered the veggies and gravy to a sauce pan and boiled them until they were cooked. This recipe was very tasty and I will make it again but will cook it longer. I also added thinly sliced onion. YUMMY!

My husband raved about the gravy of this easy crock pot dish. Who would have thought a simple, soup-based gravy would taste so good, but it does. My crock pot cooks on a higher setting, I think, than other people's, and I would only cook the chicken about 2 1/2 - 3 hours.

This recipe was good. I served it over brown rice, I increased the cook time as the other reviewers suggested, I used cream of mushroom and a packet of onion dip mix, and I used a large can of chopped green chilies. I also added peas. My family all enjoyed this dinner.

Made this today. It was so good! My substitutes: Pre-battered chicken tenders (because that's what I had), 1/2 small can of diced green chilis (because that's what I had), cream of celery (because I didn't have onion--but I added a couple of tablespoons of minced fresh onion), no chicken seasoning. I cooked it in the pressure cooker for 3 1/2 hours (and did not open the lid while it was cooking). Served with rice with sliced mushrooms and shaved carrots. Husband had two helpings.

This recipe was so delicious! My whole family loved it! I have a difficult time finding recipes for chicken that don't taste like the old usual. This was original! I agree with other reviewers that the cook time wasn't quite right. I cooked for about 1 hour on high and 4 on low after that and the veggies were *just* cooked and could have even been cooked a little longer. I think it should be mentioned that the little cans of whole chilies only have about 2 per can, so buy 2 cans in case you need them.

The cook time was too short. I'd cook 8 hrs. on low next time.

We loves this recipe. I followed the ingredients instructions but I doubled the recipe, and added cream of mushroom soup. I didn't have a lot of time so I placed it into the oven rather than the crock pot. This saved me 1 1/2 hrs.

The next time I will use my crock pot. I uncovered it in the oven 20 minutes before it was finish to brown the chicken even more than it was.

had to leave out the chilies and mushrooms as husband doesn't eat them. Used cream of chicken soup and chicken flavor boost packet.

This is one of my favortie things that my mom makes and our whole family loves it! I have also made it a few times and I use onion soup mix mixed with cream of mushroom also. Sometimes I add onion if I have it and I would never miss the green chillies, they give it extra flavor but not over powering. Also, I usually cook it on high for atleast 6 hours. It almost starts to carmelize and the flavor is amazing!

I was unable to find cream of onion soup so used cream of mushroom and 1packet of onion soup mix, did not use chillies or extra mushrooms and it was excellent. My son and husband loved it too.

This recipe is amazing! It's definitely something I like to make when having company over. The veggies were still a little undercooked at 4 hours so I did have to let it go for another hour. Absolutely will add this to my recipe book!

The chicken was so tender and the gravy that was made was wonderful but my veggies were still a little hard and I had to let it go about another hour.

This recipe, as written, needed a lot of tweaking for me. I have made this twice, and each time there were problems (I should have read my own notes more carefully, from the first time I prepared this). First, I don't have a 5-qt. cooker, only a 6 1/2 qt. Does this make a difference? Four hours on low didn't even begin to cook the vegetables, and the sauce needs to be doubled so that it won't burn on the sides and bottom (which was starting to happen). The sauce also needs to be thinned with chicken stock, otherwise it remains gloppy and does not melt onto the meat and veggies. I did add at least a cup of stock, plus a quarter cup of white wine, after doubling the other ingredients in the sauce. I also added the green chiles near the end of the cooking time, otherwise they lose flavor. On both occasions making this, I had to dump everything into a Dutch oven and finish cooking it. The overall flavor is nice; I would suggest not preparing this when you are pressed for time, though.
