Excellent flavour and easy to prepare. All I changed was the orange juice. I used orange juice concentrate to intensify the flavour and it did!! I, too, thickened it a bit with cornstarch and heaped it over rice. Thank you Mirjam.

This was excellent.I doubled the recipe,but not the red pepper,and it was just spicy enough.I thickened the sauce with cornstarch and served it over rice.Very good,and easy.

The instructions forget to mention what to do with the bell peppers. I assumed that I added them to the bottom of the crockpot with the onions, etc. Otherwise, this recipe was great!

This was really good & a different taste for chicken! Although I didn't do it this time, I think it is a good idea to add cornstarch to thicken the sauce. Also, instead of chopping the onions & green pepper, I just sliced one large onion and one green pepper, and chopped the celery. My husband loves cooked onions, so he appreciated this!

Great recipe!! I didn't have celery on hand so I didn't use it, and I put most of the bellpepper on top of the chicken .. I thickened the sauce with cornstarch, and served the chicken with the bellpepper on top on a bed of sauce, it looked really good, and tasted even better!!

Great recipe! Very low in fat, spicy, sweet (but not overly) and flavorful. I omitted the celery and used both red and green peppers for extra color. Served over white rice, this recipe makes a nice sauce that looks great on the plate. I'll definitely make this again. Note: I thought ths was very spicy, but I have super-sensitive taste buds. My husband didn't think it was spicy at all. Also, I cooked the chicken breast for 5 hours on low. I'm sure 6 hours would work too, but I find 5 hours is plenty when cooking boneless, skinless breasts.

This was ok, but I was expecting it to taste more like orange chicken -when i made this it turned out really spicy. it was still good for a new way to cook chicken, but it wasn't what I was expecting.

Take out the fact that I over did the cayenne, this was a lovely meal. The only thing I would say is not to cook it as long as six hours as the chicken was very dry. I like the fact that I always have the ingredients and it is a lovely flavour. This will be cooked again. Hubby also wants me to try it with pork. Thanks Mirji.

I too used the concentrate instead of just juice. It gave great orange flavor. Next time I will use a little less of the peppers and orange peel. All in all, this was a flavorful and easy to prepare recipe and just needed a bit of cornstarch to thicken the sauce for serving. Thanks for posting!
