That's Amore, Chicken Cacciatore!



Thanks to Carol Sherwood in NY for this recipe from my calendar of crockpot recipes. I have made this recipe numerous times and it's a fave not only of myself and my husband, but now my family who greatly enjoyed it last night; some were even to full for brownies and vanilla ice cream afterwards! This recipe makes 6 servings and is a perfect family meal - enjoy!

6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts halves
28 oz jar of whatever spaghetti sauce you would like - most come in 24 or 26 ounces, so I just go with one of those, no problem
2 green peppers, chopped or sliced in as small/large of pieces as you would like
1 onion, again cut how you would like
2 tbsp minced garlic
***you can also add mushrooms and any other seasonings, like crushed red pepper, oregano leaves, etc***

Place half of the chicken in a layer on the bottom of the crockpot. Mix remaining ingredients, besides the chicken that is left, in a large bowl. Spoon half of this mixture over the first layer of chicken. Add remaining chicken and top with remaining sauce. Cover and cook on low 7-9 hours.

I like to serve this with angel hair or any type of pasta really, a nice garden or tomato/basil/mozz salad, and some garlic bread - yum!

Tomorrow, the pumpkin pie recipe and the Halloween meal we had tonight...oops;)
