Crock Pot Chicken Cacciatore

I made this recipe 8/2001 and it turned out great!However, next time I will be sure to use skinless chicken. The skin made it a bit greasy. I also used tomato sauce instead of paste, and added a can of diced tomatoes. I did not add the celery seeds, but I chopped up some green peppers and added them to the pot.

The added ingredients in this recipe made it more appealing than the others I considered. Used legs only and found that it was not necessary to skin the chicken if it was browned well. Also, the cook time is a bit long. Five hours is long enough. Very tender. White meat would dry out, so stick with dark. Add garlic bread, a salad, and a good bottle of red...great dinner for a week night!

We used 4 frozen boneless, skinless chicken breasts, 3 cans of tomato sauce, and a tad extra oregano and served this over whole wheat thin spaghetti. It was fabulous. Also, taking the advice of other reviews, I added 2 green bell peppers cut into strips, which added greatly to the flavor and made the dish go further. I will make this again!

This is really good. I had made this a long time ago and forgot about it, so I'm glad I found a Crock Pot version. I substituted black olives for the mushrooms, and added 2 teaspoons of dried basil. Thanks for posting your recipe! HHC

I took the skin off of most of the chicken pieces before adding them to the crock pot. I think that really helped to cut down on the amount of fat in the cooked sauce. I added a few strips of green pepper and used 1/4c. red wine and 1/4 c. water for the 1/2c. water ingredient. My mushrooms were small so I left them whole. The chicken was fall off the bone tender so before serving, I pulled all of the chicken off of the bone and stirred everything together. Serve with additional parmesan cheese.

Excellent flavor! I used boneless chicken breasts and added a can of diced tomatoes to this and let it cook all day on low..Serve over pasta and it was delicious! .

I made this 2 weekends in a row with chicken breasts - I used sea salt instead of table salt and it made a difference. Very tasty and super easy - highly recommend!!

My co-worker, John, tried this out over the weekend. He says it was very good and gives it 4 stars!

I made this chicken last night and it was falling-off-the-bone delicious! I omitted the onion, mushrooms, and celery seed (personal preference) and upped the garlic to 6 cloves. I also used 12 ounces of tomato paste plus a 15-ounce can of diced tomatoes. Cooked it on high for almost 4 hours. My beloved and I devoured it on top of some whole wheat angel hair. Will definitely be making this again and again. Thank you!

I made this last night and it was fabulous. A few changes that I made after reading the reviews were as follows; Used some leftover white wine in place of the water, about 2/3 cup, I used 12 ozs of tomato paste and sauce. We're not big on angel hair so we used linguini instead. I also omited the celery seed. I will absolutley be making this again.

I used a dutch oven to make this. It came out wonderful. I will be making it again!

Oh my goodness the family LOVED it! Instead of tomato paste or sauce I used my left over home made marinara and instead of water...Wine. Thank you what a wonderful winter dish!

Yummy. I used only chicken thighs. I removed the skin and tossed them in. I used 6 oz tomato paste and 6 oz tomato sauce. Very easy.

Made this for DH and me the other night and it was just fantastic. I am still getting to grips with the crockpot so cooked this on the low setting for 7 hours. The meat was really tender and just fell off the bones.

Easy to make, very tasty. Didn't use the mushrooms, however, as I am the only one in the family who likes them. (Darn!) But everyone else thought they were great too.

Not a bad recipe. When I do it again I will add 4 chopped red peppers, and use tomato sauce instead of paste. Thanks for the recipe all the same. -cApTaIn iNsAnO

I decided not to assign stars, because I have decided I don't much like crockpot food. I did think the sauce ingredients worked and tasted fine as written. I hated the texture of the chicken.

Have not tried this yet, was looking for crock-pot recipes, but Chicken Cacc. is one of my family's favorites and it absolutely has to have red wine in it, and green peppers.
