Title: Crockpot Chicken Cacciatore
Categories: Poultry, Pot roast, Italian
Yield: 4 Servings

1 Onion, medium; sliced
1 Celery stalk w/leaves
- cut in 1-inch pieces
2 cn Tomato paste; 6 oz. each
- 1 can w/garlic
1/2 c Chianti; or any wine
1/4 ts Pepper
1 ts Creole seasoning
1 Bay leaf
6 Mushrooms, large; sliced
3 Garlic cloves
1/2 ts Basil
2 ts Oregano
1 Chicken, whole, about 3 lbs.

Place sliced onion in bottom of crock-pot. Add chicken -- you can either
use a whole chicken or chop it up in pieces. Stir together tomato paste (as
indicated, I used 1 can of "regular" tomato paste and 1 can with garlic),
creole seasoning (I used Konriko brand), pepper, garlic, herbs, and 1/4 cup
of wine. I went against "tradition" and used a red wine. I like the way
reds blend with tomato sauces. In this case, I used a light Chianti. Pour
over chicken. Pour remaining wine over chicken as well. Cover and cook on
LOW for 7 to 9 hours (HIGH 3 to 4 hours). Serve chicken over hot buttered
spaghetti, vermicelli, fettucini, or other pasta.
