This recipe fell totally flat on flavor. A couple tablespoons of dijon mustard helped kick it up a bit, but there’s still room for improvement. It’s getting three mittens only because it was super easy to make.

This is a pretty good recipe. I had such high hopes for it because the picture looked amazing, the chicken marinade smelt amazing, my house smells amazing… but it was just missing something in the flavor. I hate to not give it 5 mittens because I really wanted it to taste super great, but it just didn’t do it for me. However, my husband really enjoyed it! (which is why I am giving it 4 mittens) I would probably give it 3.

This was quite good! It was very simple and flavorful. The wine flavor really came through so use a good one! I agree with some of the other reviews-this does not need to be a crockpot dish, when we make it again, I will marinade it overnight and cook it in a skillet. I also added onions and broccoli, YUM!

Excellent recipe, thanks! I put it on the menu for the week, bought the ingredients, and then forgot to put it in the crockpot. Whoops. So, an hour before dinner, here’s what I did: I sauteed the chicken and garlic in olive oil, added the parsley, basil, white wine, 1/4 cup of water, and chopped broccoli, and covered the pan for 8 minutes. Meanwhile, I prepared the orzo as suggested. Tossed the two mixtures together and there was supper! The only thing I would change next time is that I would use two heads of broccoli. I used one head this time and it wasn’t enough veggies for my tastes. Wonderful meal, thank you!

what else do we put in the crock pot with the chicken? Just the chicken AND the 3 T of white wine??? Or do we add the marinade too?

Great recipe. I didn’t put it in the crockpot though. I marinaded the chicken in the morning and then when I got home, I sauteed the chicken while the orzo cooked, this browned the chicken more that the crockpot would have, then I put the broccoli on top of the chicken, covered it with a lid for about 4 minutes, to steam it. A delicious dinner was ready in about 15 minutes.

The broccoli looks delish! I usually hide spinach in the orzo (I know I’m evil), but broccoli is a great idea (they despise it even more than spinach). I cannot wait to make this…
