  1. This recipe is so delicious! I used chicken breast instead of drumsticks and cooked on high for 2hrs then turned down low for 1 hr. I also added 3TBS of crushed garlic to the onion and chicken breast and sauteed all together before adding to sc. Fantastic recipe that we will make regularly here ? Thank you so much for sharing your family recipe with us Sheri, we loved it ?

  2. Made this tonight for dinner. My partner and I loved it. We used chicken breast and added minced garlic but it was so good! Will definitely be a regular meal in our house now ?
