Slow cooking food enhances all flavors without any hard work, which makes it a
convenient and optimal way to make delicious, full-flavored family meals. Throw in the

If you do not have a slow cooker, you can cook this recipe in a 220
°F oven for 6 to 8 hours in a tightly sealed baking pan.
This classic chicken dinner has only a few ingredients that should already be in your pantry, sweet and tangy, you will love it.
