Directions
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, pepper, garlic, herbs, and ¼ cup of wine. (I went against tradition and used a red wine.)
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.
