This dish was extremely bland. I added garlic and other spices to liven it up. If I made it again I would reconfigure pretty much every thing.

A dish like this doesn't have to be slow cooked for hours! You just have to stir fry everything fast and then add a sauce at the end!

I made this yesterday and it turned out horribly. I chose to cook it on low for 7 hours while I was at work, and I got home to find that all of the veggies had turned to mush. Paste might be more accurate... you couldn't tell what had once been broccoli versus snow peas. The flavor was decent so it might work if you add the vegetables for the last couple hours of cooking, but I would NOT recommend this to anyone who wants to throw it together in the morning and come home to dinner.

This recipe was very quick to put together however, I found this dinner to be very salty. The chicken was great after being in the crock-pot for 6-8 hours and the broccoli was not mushy to answer your question from above. I would rate this meal 3 stars out of 5.
