NOTES : **You can use frozen bone in chicken thighs as well. Just turn up the heat to high for the first hour, then down to low for the remaining 6 hours. Before stirring in gravy mix, remove the skin from the chicken. The chicken will fall apart and meld nicely with the rest of the dish- just be sure to remove the bones before serving.

**Chicken breasts can be used, but either decrease the cooking time by an hour, or put in the breasts frozen at the beginning. Otherwise they will dry out.
