What does "Cook: 3hr › Extra time: 3hr 15min" mean? The recipe just says "Cover and cook on High for three hours". What is the extra 3 hours and 15 minutes for? Thanks! - 03 Oct 2015
I also added the squeezed lime juice as stated in earlier review - 28 Oct 2012
Great recipe, I added a green pepper and extra onion and left the chicken breast whole. I've eaten for my last three lunches with some rice and chicken just tears apart :-) - 21 May 2015
