I came up with this one night when I didn't know what to cook. I had leftover steak in the fridge, so I decided to get creative. These came out wonderful! The measurements are approximations, so feel free to change them according to your tastes. Serve with salsa, guacamole, and sour cream.

Chicken Cacciatore in a Slow Cooker
This chicken cacciatore crockpot recipe is very simple to make. You just throw everything in the slow cooker and let it cook during the day. I like to serve this over thin spaghetti — especially garlic and herb thin spaghetti, when I can find it.
