Ingredients:
1 onion, medium, sliced
1 celery stalk w/leaves cut in 1-inc, h pieces
2 can tomato paste, 6 oz. each 1 can w/garli
1/2 cup chianti, or any wine
1/4 tsp pepper
1 tsp creole seasoning
1 bay leaf
6 mushrooms, large, sliced
3 garlic cloves
1/2 tsp basil
2 tsp oregano
1 chicken, whole, about 3 lbs.
Instructions:
Place sliced onion in bottom of crock-pot. Add chicken -- you can
either use a whole chicken or chop it up in pieces. Stir together
tomato paste (as indicated, I used 1 can of "regular" tomato paste
and 1 can with garlic), creole seasoning (I used Konriko brand),
pepper, garlic, herbs, and 1/4 cup of wine. I went against
"tradition" and used a red wine. I like the way reds blend with
tomato sauces. In this case, I used a light Chianti. Pour over
chicken. Pour remaining wine over chicken as well. Cover and cook on
LOW for 7 to 9 hours (HIGH 3 to 4 hours). Serve chicken over hot
buttered spaghetti, vermicelli, fettucini, or other pasta.
Servings: 4
Chicken is ideal
for weight loss
and dieting
Healthy eating is far better than strict dieting, and weight loss achieved by a change of lifestyle lasts far longer than 'faddy' diets that are difficult to adopt for long periods.
Cooking more low fat chicken can enable you to lose weight gradually as part of a a controlled and healthy diet.
