Crock Pot Chicken Cacciatore

"I originally got this recipe from WW. It's become such a staple around our house. I've added a few more veggies to it to make it a more complete meal. It's designed for a smaller crock pot, so if you have a large one, just double the recipe. Chicken can be thawed, partially thawed or even frozen; just adjust the cooking time. Fast, easy and oh so delicious."

  1. This recipe is great. Directions are clear and easy to follow. Chicken comes out tender and wonderful. The sauce is good enough to eat alone. I added celery to mine and used chicken breast. This is more like chicken soup, but it is wonderful. I will definitely make it again.
     
  2. I make mine with either, whole, diced or crushed tomatoes, garlic ( powder or whole ), chicken breast, green pepper, basil, olive oil and zucchinni. Slice the chicken breasts into strips first and then place it into the crock pot. The spices are to taste so there's no measuring. Salt and Pepper are optional. Serve over Pasta or Rice or eat by itself. The chicken doesn't take long to cook and is nice and tender.
     
  3. This is the most wonderful, flavorful, fall of the bone tender way to cook chicken. I make this all the time and it's always great.
     
  4. I haven't made this yet, thus no stars. However I did want to say THANK YOU for noting the crockpot size, very helpful.
     
  5. This is a hit at my house! I only made a couple changes last night (though it's WONDERFUL as is). I added a couple extra cloves of garlic, omitted the green pepper that I forgot to buy and used some diced eggplant leftover from another recipe since I didn't have any zucchini. Also added some salt and pepper and a little italian seasoning. Served it over rice and/or Oven Fried Eggplant (recipe 49387) and it was out of this world!!! Can't wait to serve these two together again!! So good I finally created an account so I could rate them both! Try it!

Tweaks

  1. Cut the chicken breast into strips and spices
     
  2. This was a great crockpot recipe, esp because it so lowfat! I added mushrooms and subbed summer squash for the zucchini. I doubled the recipe (will freeze a lot!) and added a green, yellow, and red pepper to it. SO colorful! I liked this even cold, so thanks for this keeper!
