Notes

If you're not a big fan of vinaigrette, you can use half the amount or a different dressing.
I used frozen chicken because I often forget to set it in the refrigerator to thaw the night before. You can use frozen or refrigerated. I would cook them both for eight hours to get the meat tender.
