I love this dish because it turns affordable chicken thighs into a rich and delicious meal. The sauce is what makes this dish, because it's creamy and tangy. A crisp salad or fresh vegetable rounds out the meal.—dutchmom4MI, Taste of Home Online Community

Super simple. Had everything on hand. Tasty. I would say it should be called "creamy chicken thighs" as well, because it isn't really tangy. It's real creamy though! I threw in some potato chunks, and just ate it like a stew. :)

Have made this just once before, without rating. Would definitely give this a '10' if stars went that high.

Maybe the name should be Creamy chicken thighs so people that want very tangy chicken will not be upset.It is really good over noodles.

Not in the least bit tangy. Nobody liked it enough to make again.

Great flavor. Even my extra picky son who hates sauce went back for two more servings.

My husband is a very picky eater, he liked this one and even went back for seconds. I too liked it, altho will be a difficult one for me to make often with my work schedule. It's not a crock pot recipe that you can throw in and forget so will have to be done on my days off, but definitely worth it. Very yummy !
