"MY MOTHER-IN-LAW said she devised this recipe when her children were growing up and schedules were hectic. It was a favorite Sunday dish because it could be cooking while the family was at church. When they came home, it didn't take long to finish the preparations and put dinner on the table."

This is an excellent dish! Loved it ... so easy and tastes so good. Cooked up some rice and served it with the gravy/chicken leftovers and was able to stretch it into another meal. Thanks for the recipe.

Simplify this recipe by using chicken breasts and skip the crock pot. The result is out of this world. The chicken doesn't get soggy this way and you can still use the gravy. Serve with mashed potatoes. Oh so good!!
