One of our new favorite things to eat is this easy chicken cacciatore recipe made in the slow cooker.
The flavors that result from the peppers, onions and dark meat chicken in the tomato sauce are simply delicious. The vegetables are so tender, and the meat pulls off the bone with a fork perfectly. You will LOVE this one!
