Easy Slow Cooker Chicken Cacciatore




I have a grandson, Luca, who loves to eat. One of his favorite food to relish at my house is anything made with chicken. He and his sister, Maddie, love the Chicken Satay I prepared for them and the wonderful experience stuck with him.

One day I asked my children who came for a celebration if they wanted chicken, namely the leftover from our dinner and guess who raised his hand oh so high, Luca. So cute and adorable. When they were going home he also pointed to the slow cooker which contained the chicken to her mother to remind her to take his favorite food home.

They were coming last night so I prepared this easy chicken dish for them especially for the chicken boy, Luca. I actually liked this dish and was surprised how good the ingredients came together: the wine, the marinara sauce, beef bouillon and the mushrooms. Note most of the ingredients came straight from the pantry. So easy.

Here are pictures of Luca with his family at a ducky race.









Easy Slow Cooker Chicken Cacciatore

  • 2 lbs chicken breasts
  • 1-24 oz jar marinara sauce
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 2 beef bouillon cubes
  • 2-10 oz bottle chopped mushrooms, one undrained the other drained
  • 1\2 cup red wine
  • black pepper to taste

Place all the ingredients in the  Slow Cooker and cook  at
high setting for 4 hours or for 8 hours at low. I cooked mine in an Aroma Brand rice cooker/slow cooker for 2 hours at slow cooker setting.

Serve over pasta, rice or mashed potatoes.
