This ended up way too dry. Had to use it for chicken salad. The flavor didn't seem to penetrate into the meat, either, though the outside of each piece was tasty.

My family loved this chicken. I did what one person suggested and added 1 cup of chicken broth. At the end, I removed the chicken to a platter and thickened the gravy to spoon over the chicken. Next time I will make rice to go along side this tosoak upthe excellent gravy. Thank yoy for such a wonderful recipe!

I will make this again tweeking it to our taste. The brown sauce adds no flavor, but made it murky and ugly -- I'll definitely eliminate that. I will use either the thyme or the basil, but not both. I will add onions and mushrooms, just because we love them. It was nice to come home from church and have dinner ready! As with most slow cooked meals, it smelled wonderful!

Definitley one of my family's favourites! The flavours are excellent and I have used this rub to prepare the chicken in the oven and on the grill. I have also used chicken quarters instead of breasts. I use a Knorr Homestyle Stock to make the chicken broth, it is very handy and most tasty.

My family really enjoyed this recipe. I didn't have trouble with the chicken holding the seasonings. I was able to put it in the crock put before church and came home to a tasty meal.
