Chicken Cacciatore

1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1 broiler/fryer chicken (3 to 4 pounds), cut up
2 tablespoons canola oil
2 medium onions, cut into wedges
1 medium green pepper, cut into strips
1 jar (6 ounces) sliced mushrooms, drained
1 can (14-1/2 ounces) diced tomatoes, undrained
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese

Place flour in a large resealable plastic bag. Add chicken, a few pieces at a time, and shake to coat. In a large skillet, brown chicken in oil on all sides. Transfer to a 5-qt. slow cooker. Top with onions, green pepper and mushrooms. In a small bowl, combine the tomatoes, garlic, salt, oregano and basil; pour over vegetables. Cover and cook on low for 4-5 hours or until chicken juices run clear and vegetables are tender. Serve with cheese.

Serves 6.
