Nomday: Chicken Cacciatore



This was the most expensive meal so far. I think it had to do with the added cost of the wine, but at least I will have some creativity lubrication and Max has something to help him sleep when he gets home from work late at night.

Max drew the art for this page because he kept saying cacciatore reminded him of Bugs Bunny cartoons.


Chicken Cacciatore

Preparation Time: 15 minutes

Cooking Time: 7 hours

Approximate Cost: $18.50

2-3 lbs. chicken thighs (we used boneless/ skinless)

14 oz. can diced tomatoes with Italian seasoning

6 oz. can tomato paste

14 oz. chicken broth

1 large white onion, sliced

6 cloves garlic, pressed

2 green bell pepper, chopped

1 carton sliced baby bella mushrooms

1 cup dry red wine (I used one small bottle of the Sutter Home Merlot)

1 tsp. dried Italian seasoning (Mix my own combination)

Salt & Pepper to taste


Place all ingredients in the crock pot. Cover and cook on low 6-8 hours until chicken is thoroughly cooked and tender.
