CHICKEN CACCIATORE

I plan to try this recipe tomorrow, and I was wondering what type of black olives you used. Were they Kalamata type olives or regular old canned black olives? I find they both give their own distinct flavor to recipes, so I want to make sure to use the right kind. Thanks!

No tomato paste is needed for this recipe, however, some people like thicker tomato sauces and I usually recommend thickening with tomato paste (2 tablespoons for this sized recipe)



this was so delicious! I made it just now and it’s perfect. The flavors are incredible. Thank you for another great recipe. I’m always checking your site for dinner recipes

I must have looked at a dozen, what I deemed iffy, Cacciatore recipes before I settled on this one. Jackpot! I did mine in the slow cooker (6 qt). I prefer chicken breasts to thighs and without having the weight most internet conversions were: 2 thighs:1 chicken breast. Thanks to my mother, I never cook anything for less than an army and well, 3 chicken breasts, just didn’t seem like enough. Stop judging. If anyone is interested, I used 3 lbs of boneless, skinless chicken breasts and doubled the entire recipe, except for the mushrooms. Dont freak out. It filled up the entire pot and I thought there was no way the mushrooms would fit at the end: they did. I used red wine vinegar in place of the alcohol because it was all I had, but I would not recommend this. Balsamic would be much nicer. I added a chicken boullion to prevent my excessive salting and some parm cheese, because who doesnt like cheese? Collectively, we don’t like olives, thyme or roma tomatoes so I omitted them. Cooked everything for 7 hours, shredded the chicken, added the mushrooms and cooked for another hour. I might add some tomato paste tomorrow if it doesn’t thicken a little overnight, but I’m on the fence because it’s seriously A-MAZING the way it is. I plan on serving over roasted cauliflower. Bonus: No one will be asking “What’s for dinner?” for the next two nights, which makes me want to blow up balloons and throw glitter.
