Crockpot Chicken Cacciatore

I am lucky to have wonderful friends, some I have known since I was two years old. But on a hectic night, my best friend is my trusted crock pot. We all have them - the night when you have something scheduled the entire day, trying to coordinate in your head how you can get a meal in the oven and on the table in time for your hungry kids. I love this recipe for Chicken Cacciatore because it is a meal that is ready when I am ready. I have modified a recipe that was given to me by my mother. This is an easy, one pot meal that has the meat and vegetables already in it. I serve my chicken cacciatore with either a side of my family's favorite type of pasta or even mashed potatoes.


Crockpot Chicken Cacciatore
1 pound chicken breast, cut into pieces
1 can tomato soup
1/4 C. Chicken stock
1/4 C. Dry Red Wine
1/2 C. onion, cut into long strips
1 green pepper, cut into long strips
1 can of mushrooms
1/2 tsp. minced garlic
1 tsp. Italian seasoning


Put into crock pot, cook on low for 7 - 8 hours, or 3 - 4 hours on high.

Served with a side glass of red wine for the adults - delish!
