This month’s website of the month, All Recipes, is a huge
recipe site. Like thousands and thousands of recipes. Not only are there a
large number of recipes, the recipes found on this site (not to mention the
site in general) are quite popular.
Take today’s recipe. I have seen it all over the web. So it
offers up this question, did it originate on All Recipes and go viral from
there, or was it popular somewhere else and was just shared on All Recipes.
Humm, who knows!?!

Cacciatore is a classic Italian dish. It means ‘hunter’
which just means basically a rustic style stew. This meal varies slightly by
region in Italy but usually involves chicken or rabbit, herbs and spices, and
various rustic vegetables, such as onions, bell peppers, and mushrooms.
Traditionally slow cooked for an hour or so on the stove top or in the oven,
this version is cooked in the crock-pot. Serve this rustic style over pasta or
simply as is with a side of crusty bread.
