Category:     Appetizer

Description:
Fresh tomatoes are at the Farmer's Market and green beans are fresh - both are inexpensive and delicious right now. Chicken was on sale - so I made Chicken Cacciatore.


General applicability:

Chicken Cacciatore
Green: recipe contains only neutral or a beneficials ingredients for that type.
Yellow: recipe contains an secondary avoid ingredient that may be substituted by a more permissable one.
Orange: contains an avoid in a primary ingredient.



Ingredient list:
  • 3 half chicken breasts, or 6 chicken thighs, or 1 whole chicken cut up (or your favorite pieces)
  • Note: While the chicken is browning, I season it with a seasoning I made up. Here is the recipe:
  • My version:
  • 1/2 tsp garlic salt
  • 1/4 tsp paprika
  • 1/3 c sugar
  • 2 tsp granulated garlic
  • 1/2 tsp Cumin
  • 1 tsp - 1 1/2 tsp turmeric
  • 1 tsp Lemon peel
  • 1/2 tsp cayenne
  • 2 tsp granulated onion
  • 1/2 tsp ground mustard


How to make it:
  • Brown chicken pieces, but do not cook. (I flour my chicken pieces with spelt flour and fry in olive oil).
  • Do not cook the chicken, just brown it. Then place it in the crock pot.
  • In the fry pan you just used (add more olive oil if necessary - olive oil adds a nice flavor to this dish later), add 1 chopped large onion and start to sautee it lightly
  • Add 2 cloves chopped garlic and continue to sautee
  • Add 1/4 to 1/2 cup chopped Italian parsley and continue to saute
  • Add 2T fresh Greek oregano (if you have it in the yard) or 2 tsp. dry oregano
  • Add 2 T fresh basil (if you have it in the yard) or 2 tsp. dry sweet basil
  • Add 1 tsp. garlic salt
  • Add 1/2 tsp. roasted chicory root (optional) (I use this in place of pepper)
  • Add two 6-ounce cans of tomato paste Add 4 fresh juicy chopped tomatoes (or 1 15-ounce stewed tomatoes or tomato sauce)
  • Add 1 tsp. sugar (optional) Stir this mixture lightly
  • Do not saute this mixture too hard - just a few minutes to get the ingredients blended).
  • Pour this tomato mixture over the chicken.
  • Add 1/4 pound fresh green beans to the sauce (optional)and lightly stir (I've even added some zucchini sometimes).
  • Cook in the slow cooker 4-6 hours - until chicken is cooked.
  • Note: This tastes exquisite if allowed to cool and refrigerate over night - then warmed up the next day.
  • Enjoy!
