Step 1

Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.

Step 4

Pour in the diced tomatoes (with juices), tomato sauce, and chicken broth over the chicken and vegetables.

Step 5

Add the oregano, basil, crushed red pepper flakes, kosher salt, and ground black pepper. Stir gently to combine.

Step 6

Cover the crock pot and cook on low for 6-7 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until the chicken is tender and cooked through.

Step 7

Once done, taste and adjust seasonings if needed.

Step 8

Serve the Chicken Cacciatore over whole-grain pasta, rice, or with a side of steamed vegetables. Sprinkle with fresh parsley for garnish.
