Reviews
It’s pretty good. I did follow the ingredients and amounts, except I sautéed onion with the celery. I started cooking it in a crockpot, but it was very mushy. I moved it to a casserole dish, put it in the oven, and even broiled the top for a few minutes, which I think helped. I’m not sure it needs to cook for so long – maybe only because of the raw eggs? I used cut up raw chicken breasts and didn’t cook them all the way through prior to adding them to the crockpot. The chicken was quite cooked, even a little dry. I liked the flavor. I may cut out the eggs the next time and shorten the cooking time.
Sooo good!! I used pork chops instead of the chicken and did not pre-cook the meat because there’s really no need to, just put it in raw. Also I used fresh onion, parsley, basil and mushrooms. I also cut down the butter to one and a half sticks instead of two sticks.
