Rich Crockpot Chicken Cacciatore is low in fat and sodium, and is made so easily in your slow cooker.

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Total Time: 7 hours, 15 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 3 lbs. bone-in chicken thighs, skin removed
  • 14 oz. can diced tomatoes with Italian seasoning
  • 6 oz. can tomato paste
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 onion, sliced
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 green bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 cup sliced mushrooms
  • 1/2 cup dry red wine
  • 1 tsp. dried Italian seasoning
  • 1/8 tsp. pepper
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 2 Tbsp. cornstarch
  • 3 Tbsp. water

Preparation:

Place all ingredients except cornstarch and water in 4-5 quart slow cooker. Cover and cook on low 6-8 hours until chicken is thoroughly cooked and tender.

Flavorful and delicious, Guest Kristine

My family loves this casserole! It has lots of wonderful flavor with the onions and garlic. I add more dried herbs at the end because the crockpot tends to mute them. I can't believe how tender the chicken is and moist too. Definitely on my repertoire.
