    This was DELICIOUS! Came out just like the picture after thickening the glaze with corn starch, great suggestion lsteadman1. Slow cooked on low for 7 hrs, so the flavors absorbed fully into the chicken. I rotated the chicken a couple of times during the process in order to evenly cover the chicken. I have a picky eater in the family and he loved the meal. A definite to make again.
    Chkwagner - garlic is the first ingredient listed in the second column so it is posted just like explained on TV, they are consistent.

    I haven't tried making this yet. But I find it disturbing that the ingredients listed online do not match the ingredients that Melissa quoted on television. For example, on TV, she added 3 cloves of garlic minced. Garlic is not listed in the online recipe.
    Please try to consistent.

    Not the worst but way too much 5 spice and definatly not what the picture looked l like. It was more poached than glazed. (yes, crock pot, not oven
    That being said, I did not need a glaze as I am watching calories and will make it again. With a lot less 5 spice. not sure it needs to cook as long as suggested either.

    I followed the recipe exactly and it did not turn out like what Melissa pulled out of her crockpot and I'm a good cook. I was very disappointed.

    I put this in the crockpot on low and the sauce was burnt 6 hours later. The whole house smelled like burnt sugar for 2 days. I had to throw it out. The chicken was dried out too. I think the other reviewer is right, the flavors would be great in a stir fry but this is NOT a crockpot dish. And I am an accomplished cook.

    I made this dish and I really enjoyed it. I made a few adjustments though. I used white wine vinegar instead of sherry because I didn't have any. I also didn't have any 5 spice powder so I improvised. The flavors of this dish were excellent, but like the person before me the chicken was also falling off the bone so I removed it and served it like a shredded chicken. I really dont see the point in cooking this dish in the slow cooker. Next time I think I'll use a wok or just a sautee pan. I also thought the sauce was too thin, it was very watery, so I used some cornstarch and chicken broth to thicken it up and it was perfect. Over all it was quite tasty, just needed some tweaking. I will make it again.

    This recipe tasted pretty good, but it came out looking nothing like the picture. I cooked it for 8 hours on low as directed, and the chicken completely fell of the bones as I took it out of the slow cooker. We served it as a "shredded Asian chicken". There was really no glaze, just a liquid sauce. Not what I expected.
