My in-laws were coming over for lunch a couple of weekends ago and I put my husband in charge of cooking. He loves using his Dutch Oven and was excited to cook something in it for his parents, since they are the ones who bought it for us last Christmas. He found this recipe, but instead of using a whole chicken, cut up, like the original recipe called for, we decided to use thighs. Less prep work for the chef! The ingredient list had me skeptical....canned mushroom soup mix and beer??!! However, this dish came out really flavorful. As always, when we use the Dutch Oven, the chicken was falling off the bone tender. The kids ate this, which is always a plus! It was a perfect chilly, autumn day weekend dish.
