Chicken Cacciatore

So spaghetti with marinara sauce is wonderful. It's one of those go to meals. Try a hearty Cacciatore instead sometime , or try using your leftover marinara sauce to make it. this dish can be made in a crock pot, just brown meat and onions and then add the rest to the slow cooker, I love this dish over rice or penne pasta.
