Crock-Pot Chicken Cacciatore Recipe
Recipe Ingredients
1 onion, medium, sliced
1 celery stalk w/leaves cut in 1-inc, h pieces
2 can tomato paste, 6 oz. each 1 can w/garli
1/2 cup chianti, or any wine
1/4 tsp pepper
1 tsp creole seasoning
1 bay leaf
6 mushrooms, large, sliced
3 garlic cloves
1/2 tsp basil
2 tsp oregano
1 chicken, whole, about 3 lbs.
Recipe Preparation
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.
Servings: 4

Food Tips of the Week
Losing weightRecognise the difference between hunger and thirst. At times when going through a hectic day, you imagine you feel hunger but if truth be told you just need a restorative tumbler of water or cranberry juice. The feelings of hunger and thirst are quite alike, but one can result in weight gain and the alternative is fine.
The case against reduced carbohydrate diets
Its all the rage, but it is truly safe and healthy for you?
Eliminating carbs may mean missing out on required nutrients from healthy carbohydrate foods which must be part of any well adjusted diet, particularly those provied by vegetables, fruits and grains.
Eating more animal-based products may lead into increased consumption of saturated fat and cholesterol, which many authorities believe will increase the risk of coronary problems.
Healthy foods with carotenes
(includes parsley, kale and tomato puree)
These plants are rich in the carotenoids believed to play a role in helping prevent cancer, spefically cancer of the lungs. The majority of these also have a low calorie count, so should be a part of every diet.
