Loved it! My picky husband loved it and told me to keep it in my recipe box. I used my own stock, which made it healthier, and didn't add the raisins because I forgot to but I didnt miss them. I was 9 months pregnant when I made this and it was quick and easy. Also, added a sweet potatoe like other reviewers suggested, and it was an awesome choice!

This was basically good but a little bland. Next time I will use less chicken broth and increase the seasoning. There was a lot of sauce but it was very watery, will maybe try thickening it with some cornstarch. Chicken was very tender.

I wanted so badly to like this. It got so many positive reviews and I love slow cooker recipes. The only thing I changed was omitting the green pepper because I did not have one on hand, and I added a little bit less raisins because my hubby is not a big fan. Even with less raisins the dish turned out way, way to sweet. I am usually a fan of sweeter dishes, but this was just too much. My husband and I each had a small bowl. Even though I found it to sweet, I did like the flavors. I may use the spices as an inspiration for a modified version of this recipe.

Loved the flavor and spices! I decided to add sweet potatoes as others have mentioned and it was just a little too sweet for me my family. The cinnamon seemed a little overwhelming. If I were to do it over, I would go lighter on the honey and the cinnamon especially if adding sweet potatoes.

I only had bone-in thighs, so they went into the bottom of the crockpot, and everything else got layered in on top. I didn't have a bell pepper, but that's the only change I made to the recipe. I figured since I was using bone-in thighs that the cook time would need to be increased, so I put it on High and checked back 4 hours later to see how they were doing. My thighs were falling apart!! So, I pulled out the thighs and let them cool before de-boning them. I added a little cornstarch to the pot and let it continue to cook. When I was ready to start the rice (used rice not orzo) I put the chicken back in the liquid. I served this in bowls on top of rice. Yum. Next time I won't use so much honey, with the raisins, it was a bit sweet.

This looked good on paper. Far too sweet for a chicken stew by my standards, but I don’t have much experience with Moroccan food.

Super easy slow cooker meal that is a bit different from the standard. Great flavors from the honey, cumin and cinnamon. I only used 1 can (2 cup) of chicken stock and there was more than enough liquid. I also added 1/2 tsp. ground ginger. Definitely add the raisins in the last half hour. Served on brown rice. Will make again! Thanks for sharing!

Great flavor, simple preparation. Has become a "regular" in our family menu. Added small pkg (2.5 oz) of sundried tomatoes for a richer, more earthy flavor. Modified to use a dutch oven, instead of a slow-cooker as follows: lightly brown chicken thighs in 1Tbsp melted butter in dutch oven and remove, saute onion & garlic in butter/chicken juices, add back chicken & all remaining ingredients, bake 2 hours at 350 degrees.
