Chicken Cacciatore
In the unlikely event you were waiting with baited breath for the results of dinner with my new pot the other night, I will now relieve your anxiety by assuring you it was delicious. :) This beauty did the job admirably. I was tickled by how much food I could fit in it; it will be a fabulous size for entertaining. Clean up was super easy and it seemed to heat evenly and hold the heat well.
The chicken cacciatore recipe is from my mother in law, from an old version of the Better Homes & Gardens cookbook. It's an easy and inexpensive meal, and the flavor is superb.
Chicken Cacciatore
3 lbs. bone-in chicken pieces
2 medium onions, sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 28 oz. can crushed tomatoes
1 8 oz. can tomato sauce
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper
1 tsp. dried basil
1/2 tsp. celery seed
2 bay leaves
1/4 c. dry white wine
