I was hoping this would turn out good. It had such good reviews. I didn't think it was anything special

This chicken is amazingly flavorful and so easy!

This was good. I followed the suggestion of one of the other comments and used Balsamic Vinegar in place of the Vermouth. I served it with rice. It was a big hit with my family and will definitely make it again.

This recipe sounds good, but my family likes the skin. Has anyone made this with the skin on?

Very good! I agree anything with Garlic is good. This is soooo easy to throw together and as it cooks the house smells good. I too did not have vermouth on hand so I substituted Merlot wine, and it was great! Everything else I had on hand and added it as the recipe stated. Great chicken!

 Garlic with just about anything is quiet tasty, this recipe is no different. Definitely recommended!

Fantastic. Had to sub balsamic vinegar for vermouth (all I had) and it was still delicious!

A fantastic dressed up version of the original 40 clove chicken recipe! And, in a crockpot too!! Thanks! I'm passing this one on to my brother who cooks a new chicken recipe for his family every Sunday.

You can buy the garlic gloves already peeled in a plastic jar at the grocery store. They are located where the fresh produce is. Sure saves time!!!
