This came out perfectly. My wife and I both enjoyed it. The flavors melded very well. We will be making this again soon.

I LOVED this. I'm not sure how it got only two stars. I served it over brown rice, which was a great way to soak up the delicious broth. I drained the tomatoes before adding them, otherwise I think there would have been too much liquid. I also let it cook for a while with the lid off to evaporate some of the water. I used boneless chicken thighs instead of breasts, which I think do much better in a slow cooker. My mother AND father in law both loved it, and they have very different tastes. She's a very healthy eater and he'd eat pepperoni pizza every day if he could, so it's always a challenge to find something to please both of them. My two year old daughter also liked it (carrots and sweet potatoes are two of her favorite foods). This is my new favorite slow cooker recipe.

Oh no! I just bought all the ingredients and was going to try this. Boo! Maybe I will try changing up the recipe a bit.
