She is so calm

I made a delicious meal last night. Chicken Catchatorie in the crock-pot. This was my first time making it. It was simple

I’m sorry that I have no pictures to share. I thought about it, but not until the end of the night. 

As usual, I improvised. I don’t know how people usually make the dish…so maybe it is Chicken Timbuktu. Who knows!

Regardless, here is the recipe:

*note: this recipe is doubled for us…if you have older children, you may need more chicken*

3 lbs chicken thighs (or breasts-but if using breast, cook less; there is less fat and therefore moisture in the breasts)

1 cup chopped onion

1 cup chopped green pepper

1 large can crushed tomato

Spices-as desired. I used salt, pepper, Italian spice blends and a little bit of chili powder and cumin.

Stir all ingredients. COOK on low 7-8 hrs in slow cooker. Again, if using breasts-cook less time. You really could pair this with anything. I made mashed potatoes this time. I might use rice or pasta or homemade bread next time.
