Slow-Cooker Chicken Cacciatore
Here's an all-time favorite Italian dish made easy in the slow cooker! Dried herbs and fresh garlic give it an aromatic flavor. Green peppers, sliced mushrooms and diced tomatoes do a fine job of rounding out this juicy chicken cacciatore. —Denise Hollebeke, Penhold, Alberta
