Greek Chicken & Vegetable Ragout

From EatingWell: January/February 2008 — Subscribe Now!

Chicken thighs stay moist and succulent during slow cooking, infusing the accompanying vegetables with superb flavor. This easy braise has a luxurious finish of avgolémono, a versatile Greek sauce made with egg, lemon and fresh dill. Serve with whole-wheat orzo or crusty bread to soak up the sauce.

Now what I would really like is for receipes to portioned for one person. 6 serving portions is not good for one person.	1 week 1 day ago
I hesitated making this because of the some of the poor reviews, but there were enough good reviews that made me try it. I was terribly disappointed in this recipe. It was a bit too labor intensive for a crock pot recipe and even though I added extra fresh lemon juice and fresh dill, it was very bland and watery. I won't be making this one again.	1 week 3 days ago
Very tasty and very easy (especially if you use baby carrots -- just throw in a one-pound bag). I ended up cooking it longer than directed because of timing issues, but it seemed totally fine in terms of flavor (carrots and potatoes were starting to fall apart by then, but not a big deal to me). Lemon flavor wasn't overpowering at all, but definitely use freshly squeezed juice. And the dill is a wonderful, key flavor so don't leave it out. We'll be making this again! susannahclair, Alexandria, VA	7 weeks 6 days ago
There was nothing special to this recipe. I followed the directions exactly. Very bland and mediocre for food that simmered in the crock pot for 5 hours. Deanna, Ft. Lauderdale, FL	7 weeks 6 days ago
This recipe was very bland and nothing special. I ended up using the leftover chicken for chicken salad. Won't be making this recipe again. Lisa, Greensboro, NC	7 weeks 6 days ago

Very good. It satisfied my craving for Greek flavors and my kids really liked the sauce. Do not skimp on the dill. Scarehaircare, Boise, ID	7 weeks 6 days ago
My family (4 kids + husband) all love this recipe! The first time I made it, I didn't have time to add the artichokes, eggs, & lemon juice so I served it as is over rice and everyone raved. The second time, I made it the day before through step one and then made the sauce on the stovetop. Obviously the taste was totally different than the first time, but it was a huge hit too. This is going in our list of favorites and will be a regular at our house! YUM! JennyLiz, Goodyear, AZ	7 weeks 6 days ago
This was a very flavorful soup. I doubled the garlic and that seemed to complement the strong lemon flavor. Easy to make, though a bit labor-intensive for a slow cooker recipe. Sara, Colchester, VT	7 weeks 6 days ago
