    This was delicious with mashed potatoes! The sauce for me was WAY too thin, even though I used the mustards listed in the ingredients. Next time, I'm omitting the extra 1/2c. water - but there will be a next time because this is definitely worth making again! - 8/16/13

    I baked this in the oven with whole boneless skinless breasts over a bed of chopped fennel. Turned out great! - 8/8/13

    I didn't have brown mustard so only used the Dijon, and it was really good. When I heated up the leftovers a few days later, I sauteed some mushrooms and added a splash of sherry to the sauce, and it was a big improvement on an already tasty dish. - 1/18/14

    2-2˝ hour should be enough in a crock pot - 8/5/13

    This was very good! I don't like the taste of red wine vinegar, so I substituted balsamic vinegar instead. - 8/8/13

    I knew I was going to like this before it started cooking, it smelled amazing just putting it together. I made Jasmine rice and sugar snap peas with this. I will definitely make this again as it was delicious and saved time by being in the crock pot. - 1/12/15

    I'm not a huge fan of mustard, but oh this was so good! Had it tonight over mashed potatoes, along with a salad and steamed broccoli. The sauce didn't thicken much, but that just flavored the potatoes more. Next time I'll try it over brown rice. - 8/11/13

    Did not have a caramelized glaze at all. It was ok. Will not be making it again. - 8/6/13

    My husband and I loved this. It was in the slow cooker for 7 hours and was perfect over rice with fresh vegetable. - 8/7/13

    I've made this, but knowing that it wouldn't be browned in the slow cooker, I browned it before in a little olive oil before putting it in the crockpot. Not a thyme fan, I switched to a little garlic. Its a family favorite. - 1/10/15

    I don't know what I did wrong, but this was not for us. It came out thin and grey and tasted like dry chicken with vinegar sauce. I followed the recipe exactly and only cooked it for 6 hours. Would not make again and threw leftovers out. - 5/15/14
  • THECHAUFFEUR
    Pretty good! Doubled it, used fresh thyme, added carrot, served over rice. Didn't have "country style" mustard so added an extra Tbsp dijon and some whole mustard seed. Needs a little more depth of flavor, it's pretty sweet. Will work on modifying and make again! - 1/9/14
  • METAGODDESS
    Okay, but too strong a mustard flavor. Chicken cooks tender and works well over rice! Would probably not make it again but it was tasty and worth trying. - 8/6/13

    The taste is very good with this recipe but next time I will put it in the oven to bake it. Not fond of meat in the slow cooker. - 1/17/15

    Made this for my boy friend yesterday. We both liked I. Served it over white jasmine rice with steamed green bean. - 8/10/14

    I just put this in the pressure cooker as I did not get it started earlier today. It is great. - 8/5/13
  • NONNAOF2
    This is a very good recipe that my family enjoys, especially with the mustard, one of my favorite ingredients to use! I didn't change anything in this recipe! - 1/10/15

    Made this tonight and although I didn't have the tomato paste, it was still very good and my family liked it. Make it again? Yes! - 11/26/13

    I did not have thyme so I used poultry seasoning. Also I used apple cider vinegar instead of red wine. - 9/5/13

    Not a fan of this one at all, sorry! - 8/7/13
  • WIZARDHOWL
    I made this with chicken thighs, as I like those a little bit better than breasts, and I doubled the sauce mixture because I had about 1.5 lbs. of chicken. It came out very tasty! I served it with rice to soak up the sauce. I will definitely be making this again. - 1/15/18

    Delicious, this will be one of my go to dishes. - 1/17/15
  • OKBACK2MEAGAIN
    I found it very watery and did not need that extra 1/2 cup water. This could be because my chicken breast was still frozen. - 12/27/14
