Recipes Main Dishes Chicken Chicken Cacciatore Recipes Spicy Slow Cooker Chicken Cacciatore with Wine Be the first to rate & review! 1 Photo This is a delicious chicken cacciatore recipe that stems from my family's traditional recipes. Very flavorful and full of wholesome vegetables with an amazing flavor. So many tomato sauces are so bitter, but this utilizes plain white sugar to cut the bitterness and soften the sauce to make it delicious! This will end up sweet, savory, and spicy. Simple and easy to make as well! Serve over choice of pasta, rice, or just plain.

Cover and place in the refrigerator so chicken can soak up the wine, 8 hours to overnight. The next morning, remove from the refrigerator and cook on Low, stirring occasionally, for 6 hours. Remove chicken and shred meat with 2 forks; return meat to the cooker. Cook on High with lid slightly off to allow juices to evaporate and sauce to condense, about 2 more hours. Cook's Note: I use about 3 to 4 tablespoons of salt and pepper, and up to 5 tablespoons red pepper flakes.
