Slow Cooker Chicken Cacciatore From Erin at $5 Dinner Mom

Erin at $5 Dinner Mom shared her Slow Cooker Chicken Cacciatore at SC Johnson. It looks delicious and simple. I can’t wait to give it a try. Here is how she does it:

Slow Cooker Chicken Cacciatore
Ingredients
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 15 ounce can diced tomatoes, undrained
1 6 ounce can of tomato paste
6 ounces of chicken broth or water
1 4 ounce can sliced mushrooms, drained
½ yellow or white onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, crushed
1 teaspoon Italian seasonings
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon pepper
1 package boneless, skinless chicken thighs, about two pounds
1 pound fettuccine or linguini noodles

Directions
1. Prepare the sauce in the base of the slow cooker by stirring together the olive oil, diced tomatoes, tomato paste, broth or water, mushrooms, onions, garlic cloves, Italian seasonings and salt and pepper.
2. Add the chicken thighs to the sauce in the slow cooker and spoon over the sauce on top of the chicken thighs. Set the slow cooker on low and cook for eight hours.
3. Just before the chicken is finished cooking, prepare the fettuccine or linguine noodles as directed on the package.
4. Serve the chicken cacciatore over top of the noodles, with a side salad or vegetables.
