Comments:

This was really yummy. . .wonderful, citrusy flavor, and the chicken was fall-off-the-bone tender.  (Very similar to the taste of our family's grilled chicken steaks using the 7-Up/soy sauce marinade.)  Plus, being a slow cooker recipe, it's ridculously easy to prepare. 

This recipe saved me; it was late on Saturday night, I was dead tired, we hadn't done any grocery shopping, and I had (almost) all the ingredients in our freezer and pantry.  Actually, I was out of Worcestershire sauce, so I used A-1 steak sauce instead -- thank heavens for being able to Google cooking substitutes -- and I didn't have quite enough limes, so I used lemons to get the full amount of juice.  We'll definitely be making this again!
