Chicken Cacciatore in a slow cooker

Amazingly delicious Italian chicken thighs. One of my husband's favorite dishes. I make this dish in a large slow cooker... We eat half for dinner and then cool and freeze the other half. In a couple of weeks I’ll defrost it and free myself from cooking. And I will spend this time with my beloved family.

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking timeCooking time: 3 hr
  1. STEP 1

    STEP 1

    Place the chicken thighs in a hot frying pan and sprinkle with ground black pepper and all-purpose seasoning to taste. I don't use salt because all purpose seasoning already has salt in it.

  2. STEP 2

    STEP 2

    Fry on both sides in butter until golden brown.

  3. STEP 3

    In the same frying pan where you fried the chicken thighs, add the chopped onion and fry until golden brown.

  8. STEP 8

    STEP 8

    Next, lay out the tomatoes and pour tomato paste over them. You can use fresh tomatoes and tomatoes canned in their own juice. You can also use ketchup instead of tomato paste. If we use previously salted tomatoes or ketchup, there is no need to add salt. If the tomatoes and tomato paste are fresh, then you need to add salt to taste.
