Let's post all of our crockpot recipes here for ease of locating in the future.


Here is one that was originally posted by Susan:



Chicken Cacciatore (crock)

1 large onion, thinly sliced (*I used a large shallot)
1.5 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breasts (*I used 4 large ones)
2 (6-oz) cans tomato paste (*I used 1 18-oz. Can)
8-oz fresh sliced mushrooms (*I used an entire pre-sliced package)
1/2 tsp. Salt
1/4 tsp. Pepper
2 clove garlic, minced (*I used already minced in a jar)
1 tsp. Oregano
1/2 tsp. Basil
1 bay leaf
1/4 cup dry white wine**
1/4 cup water**

**I use ½ cup of lowfat chicken broth instead of both of these.


*********************

Put sliced onion in the bottom of Crock-Pot. Add chicken pieces.

In separate bowl, stir together all remaining ingredients.
(It will look “thick,” but after cooking for several hours, it will become more liquefied. I like to double and triple sauce ingredients to use on top of spaghetti squash)

Cook: cook on LOW 7 to 9 hours, or on HIGH for 3 to 4 hours.

Serve over hot spaghetti squash (real pasta for others).

To freeze place in ziplock bag when cooled and freeze flat on a cookie sheet. To serve, defrost! Then warm back up in microwave or in crock~pot, serve with fresh ww pasta or over spaghetti squash.


4 servings.

*** Note:  I find that using frozen boneless skinless chicken breasts really helps to keep them from over cooking.
