Crock Pot Chicken Cacciatore

Notes: 

Cacciatore means "hunter" in Italian, so chicken cacciatore is literally "chicken hunter's style". This dish is a little tricky in the crock pot, as water tends to come out of the vegetables and make the sauce too thin. This is why I sauté the vegetables beforehand, reduce the liquid, and add tomato paste. This also speeds the cooking time. The Parmesan cheese rind trick is something I learned from Cook's Illustrated magazine. It adds a savory depth of flavor to the sauce. This recipe is also, of course, lower in carbs than a traditional chicken cacciatore.
