I followed the recipe exactly and we all loved it! Even the kids were wanting 2nds! I was hesitant because I dont like the taste of wine but the brown sugar toned it down. Very yummy!

Disliked by my family for its sweetness and obscuring the meaty flavor. If you like meat to taste differently then this may be for you. Otherwise skip recipe or use dry wine and omit brown sugar. I did try out the suggestions but they did not help. Here is what I did: 1 Tbsp garlic, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1 tsp salt, 1 tsp paprika, 1 tsp black pepper, 1 onion sliced. 4 mushrooms, 1 cup red wine sangria. Sauteed garlic and chicken pieces in oil until juices run clear. season chicken, add onions and mushrooms and fry some more. add sugar and wine and simmer in crockpot.

Not as great as I expected by all the other reviews. It could've been that I modified the servings, but it was way too sweet and the chicken was dry (could be that my daughter had a pee-pee accident in the middle of my cooking). I am going to give it another shot, but eliminate the brown sugar and substitute fresh OJ and I think I will add mushrooms as someone suggested.

Added half an onion, sliced. Amazing flavor! This recipe won 1st prize at a friend's "Recipe party." I used a $10 merlot, but a friend suggested buying Trader Joe's $2 Charles Shaw wine, since the wine evaporates anyway. I'll try that next time to save a few precious dollars.

I've made this recipe twice though somehow my 2nd attempt didn't come out nearly as good as the 1st. Strange how this happens.. I must've altered it somehow before I cooked it the 1st time.. Gotta make notes next time! =P

Totally awesome. I too halfed the brown sugar, but I also did something a little different when the chicken was done. I removed the chicken from the pan, added more wine and more sugar, and a little flour to make a glaze. yummmmmm.

This totally didn't do it for me. The chicken was just rather dry and the sauce not all that remarkable.

This recipe made candied chicken, and not in a good way. I thought I might like it if I reduced the sugar. I love sweet and sour chicken, and lots of other sweet chicken recipes, so after reading some of the other reviews, I was willing to try it. I always taste food during the cooking process for flavor. I found I had to empty half the juice and add more red wine. It was still too sweet. I think the main problem with this recipe is that there is no balance of flavors. I used a Burgundy wine, but I think something much drier would be needed. For those of you who try this and find you don’t care for it, I was able to salvage the chicken by cooling it, chopping it up, adding onions, celery, low-fat mayonnaise, and salted peanuts for chicken salad.

Really good! I did mine in the slow cooker: I used about a cup and a half of red wine, about 1/3 cup of brown sugar, garlic powder, salt and pepper. I mixed it up and added the chicken, then cooked on low for two and a half hours. Incredibly moist and great flavor!

Nice and simple recipe. I found the proportions not to be very finicky, as I eyed the brown sugar and wine and it turned out great!

I have to say that this recipe was simply smashing. I ran across it becuase I have a ton of chicken breast (thanks Dad) and a lot of left over white merlot from a cake that I had made. This dished turned out so well. I took some to work with me and this dish nearly incited a riot (ha ha).

This dish has soo much potential, to make it a hit, there must be changes. First off, I seasoned chicken with salt pepper, and seared in olive oil until juices ran clear. Then I removed from pan, drained some of the oil, added 1/2 cup of sliced red onion, i garlic clove chopped, 1 cup of red wine, 1/2 cup of chicken stock, and 1 good tbs of brown sugar. DO NOT USE ALL THE BROWN SUGAR RECIPE CALLS FOR, I also added some garlic powder and onion powder, and 1/2 tsp of dried basil, and a good pinch of crushed red pepper to balance the sweetness. I let sauce simmer for awhile and added the chicken back to the pan, coating well with sauce. Let reduce down a little. Meanwhile I cooked 1/2lb of spaghetti noodles. I removed the chicken from the pan, and placed on platter, and tossed spaghetti in remainder of sauce. The sauce this way is wonderful!!!NOt sweet at all, and a little spice from the crushed peppers. It will be a winner if you tweak with it, and the spaghetti with the sauce was out of this world, it was a gourmet meal!

This was so great! I didn't have garlic, so I sauteed onions with some garlic powder and then followed the rest--it was very yummy, thanks!

This is one of, if not THE best chicken I have EVER made! I took some suggestions and used only 1/4 cup brown sugar; 3/4 cup red wine, and 1/4 cup chicken stock. Also at the end of cooking I added a Tbsp cornstarch to make it a thick sauce, and served over brown rice. I was so impressed!

SO good. The red wine sauce was outstanding, NO LEFTOVERS! I did modify by cutting up the chicken in bite sized pieces. I also added a lot of black pepper to offset the sweetness of the brown sugar.

Great recipe, I used a cabernet for the wine and it turned out wonderful. The sauce was really good over the jasmine rice I prepared with the chicken. I will definitely make again, will add more seasoning next time though.
