I love slow cookers and I use them all the time. I also use them for making meals. This way, I don’t have to prepare the food ahead of time and I can just put the ingredients in the slow cooker, plug it in and forget about it. I recently made a chicken and rice meal with one of my favorite foods, chicken. I knew that I wanted to use a slow cooker for this meal, so I was happy to find this recipe.
Steps
No matter what cooking methods you prefer, there is likely a slow cooker that you use. This is a great appliance to have around. It allows you to prepare and cook in the same appliance. Additionally, it saves you a lot of time since you do not have to transfer your food to a different pan. This is especially helpful for busy people, who want to get dinner on the table as soon as possible. Below, we are going to show you how to cook rice in a slow cooker.
Instructions
Ingredients: 10 Chicken Breast, your choice cut, preferably bone in, frozen and defrosted (cut in half lengthwise) 2 cups Chicken Broth (can be made by simmering 1 cup of water and 1/4 cup of soy sauce in the microwave for about 5 minutes and then adding one package of chicken bouillon) 3 cup rice (any type, short grain works best) 1/4 cup soy sauce 1/2 teaspoon each, garlic powder, onion powder and black pepper.
Slow cooker
A slow cooker is a compact, electric cooker that cooks food slowly. Typically, this cooker has a large inner pot that holds a smaller outer pot. The inner pot is fitted with a perforated lid, which allows steam to escape while the food is cooking. Slow cookers are excellent for cooking foods that take a long time to cook, such as rice or beans. With a slow cooker, you can cook dinner for yourself or your family while you’re at work, and come home to a delicious meal.
How to Cook Rice in a Slow Cooker with Chicken
The great thing about the slow cooker is that you can easily cook rice without breaking a sweat. Just be sure to use a regular cooker, not a slow cooker, as the slow cooker does not use the standard temperature settings for cooking rice. There are two ways to cook rice in a slow cooker with chicken. The first method is to cook the rice without chicken, and then add chicken to the pot after you’ve turned off the slow cooker. The second method is to cook the rice in chicken broth, and then add chicken at the end. Here’s how to cook rice in a slow cooker with chicken for both methods.
Make it Easy and Simple
Making rice in a slow cooker is one of those meals that I am able to cook in a short amount of time. I can throw it all in the slow cooker and walk away knowing it will be done in the time needed. This rice is a great way to start your day. You can make some type of protein, like chicken, with it to make it more complete. The chicken will add a lot of flavor to it, so it’s something that can really make your food stand out.
