Hello Amber,
I put the frozen chicken in the crockpot and 9.5 hours later they were fully cooked.

I wish I saw this yesterday before I cooked my chicken thighs in a recipe I kind of made up by combining several recipes together. I could have used up the apples in my fridge. It sounds delicious. Will try it soon.

I have wanted to make this all week and just put it in the crockpot now. (….life with an infant..lol) Do you think it will come out poorly if I only put it in for 6 hours? Should I cook on high instead?

Want to try this for Sunday lunch tomorrow. Do the apples cook to pieces?

I used 4 chicken breasts…is that about right? Do you know how many weight watchers points this would be?

Can it be made without the onions? Or would that ruin it, do you think?

Yes, what type of apples would you suggest. I want to make it this weekend

Thanks for responding about the onion. But I’m confused…the recipe says 1 onion, sliced, not 1 T. Is it a typo? 1 onion seems like a lot, considering what you replied. (By the way, is 1 T one tablespoon?) Thanks again!

Sorry if I am missing the answer to this: how many servings is the recipe supposed to make?

This may be silly question, do you also peel apples or leave skins on? Getting ready for crockpot tomorrow. Thanks!

It’s in the crockpot right now. It smells awesome. Can’t wait to try it. I added some additional water – it seemed dry on top of the apples. Anyone else have this problem???

You mention to cook on Low 8-10 hours. I have an auto shift on my crock (older crock) if I use that setting how long should I cook it for. Any suggestions??
