Crock Pot Chicken Cacciatore - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
1 large onion, thinly sliced
3 lbs chicken, cut up
2 (6 ounce) cans tomato paste (I prefer it with the same amount of tomato sauce instead)
4 ounces mushrooms, sliced
1 teaspoon salt
1 -2 garlic clove, minced
1 -2 teaspoon oregano
1/2 teaspoon celery seed (I omit this)
1 bay leaf
1/2 cup water
Preparation
-
Place onions in bottom of crock pot. Add chicken pieces.
Stir together remaining ingredients.
Pour over chicken.
Cook on low 7 to 9 hours; high 3 to 4 hours.
Serve over angel hair pasta.
RJ's Note: I made this recipe on 9th of May 1998. I substituted the tomato paste with a large can of tomatoes that I put through the blender. The aroma of the chicken simmering in the crock pot sauce all day was fantastic. During the last ten minutes I added some frozen mixed Chinese vegetables and served the cacciatore over home made pasta noodles (my first attempt at making pasta). I only used one teaspoon of oregano. Next time I'll try two.
