Saucy Crock Pot Chicken And Rice Recipe

Recipe By The Spruce Eats

Chicken with rice has long been a favorite meal for american families. This chicken and rice dish combines condensed soups, onion soup mix, and some parmesan cheese. It's a family-friendly meal and it's easy on the budget. This is a quick and easy recipe to prepare and cook in the slow cooker. Use a crock pot cooking bag for easy cleanup. For an all-in-one meal, layer about 2 cups of frozen cut green beans over the chicken. Boneless chicken thighs are another good choice for the slow cooker because they maintain their juiciness over a long period of cooking while chicken breasts can become dry. The minimum safe temperature for chicken is 165 f. To ensure the chicken is done, insert an instant-read thermometer into the thickest pieces. Rice can become mushy when overcooked. Some people say that their rice came out mushy in their slow cooker dish while others say their dish was perfect. If your slow cooker tends to cook items more quickly than instructions indicate, check the rice after about 3 to 4 hours. Another option is to add the rice to the slow cooker about halfway through the cooking time. Or consider farro instead of rice; it maintains a nice texture even after long cooking. Farro doesn't expand as much, so use 1 1/2 cups uncooked and increase the chicken stock to 2 cups.
