I just didn't see what the fuss was about with this recipe. The chicken was very tender, but really the dish as a whole just didn't have much flavor. Maybe cooking the chicken and vegetables separately would have helped.

I also have no idea why I followed the suggestion to use a ranch dressing marinade, it turned out really gross looking. Tasted good though. I'd give it a 3 based on how it tasted, but bumped it up to 4 since the recipe didn't call for the marinade.

This was very easy to put together. I put the chicken on the bottom and the veggies on the top. Added a bit more spices, per other users. It only took 3-4 hours on low to cook though, so dinner was early that night. It was okay tasting, nothing special though. Sorry.

This recipe was great! I tried on the BF and his BFF and our friend totally cleaned the plate! BF's picky, so maybe the thyme was too much for him. I also added lemon zest (about a tablespoon)about 5 hours into cooking and it gave it a really fresh flavour. Try this with the lemon zest, you wont be sorry!

My husband and I had this dish last night. I let it cook for about 8 hours. It was wonderful. The chicken was moist and very flavorful. The veggies were tender, but not mushy. The green beans were even a little crispy, but cooked through- just the way we like them. It came out perfect. I did add a little white wine and it gave it a little more flavor. It does take some time to prepare since you have to cut up all the veggies, but it is well worth it. I will make this over and over.

I give this recipe four stars because it was easy and healthy. It is a little lacking in the seasoning area, but for a recipe that is so healthy you can't really complain to much. My chicken was a little dry, so next time instead of layering the ingredients as listed, I might try putting the chicken on the bottom. This recipe is decent and I think I will keep it and try to tweak it a bit.

This wasn't bad, just rather boring. It is basically poached chicken and vegetables done in a crock pot. I did make up a gravy from the leftover broth to serve with this but it just isn't for me.

I thought this recipe was simple,easy and very good. I did make a couple of extra additions/substitutions however. I did use boneless/skinless chicken breasts,shredded carrots,french green beans,russet potatoes,onions,celery & garlic powder,salt,pepper,basil&thyme seasonings. I ended up doubling the water amount and bouillon and ultimately thought I'd like a sauce of some kind so I used leftover bacon drippings and added flour,1/2 milk & 1/2 remaining chicken broth from the crockpot (after it was complete)as well as some salt and it was a very good gravy to go over the vegetables. My husband and 4 children all enjoyed it. Thanks for the great recipe and the inspiration for the gravy :)

It was good, but kind of bland. The chicken was very moist however.It just fell off the bone. I would just add a lot more seasonings next time.

I'm not sure why I followed a suggestion to marinate in ranch dressing as it wasn't necessary and it left a curdled look to the broth, so I wouldn't advise that. I used 2 cans chicken broth in place of the water and bouillon and added 1/2 tsp. poultry seasoning and it was very tasty. It gets 5 stars because the original recipe did not call for ranch dressing and I think it is very good as written.

This recipe was awsome. Instead of using 3 cups water, I used 2 cups water and 1 cup white wine. I made this for my fathers birthday and everyone raved about it.

This recipe was great. I only changed it a little. Like someone said before I used chicken breast and I marinated them in ranch dressing for eight hours so they would not dry out. Otherwise I used chicken broth instead of water and I used 1 cup instead of 1/2 cup. This recipe was wonderful. My family absolutely loved it!!! Even my 6 year old told me "Mommy this was a good recipe".

This was excellent! 4 stars because I modified it a tad. I marinated the chicken in some ranch dressing so it wouldn't dry out, like some others said. I also used chicken breast cut in half, again so it wouldn't dry out, and because cooking a whole chicken scares me. Instead of water I used chicken broth,
