I wanted to make one-dish chicken and rice the other day, but needed to put it in the crockpot instead of the oven and found this recipe at About.com.
It turned out pretty well, but in the future I would add something to kick it up a notch, perhaps a little Italian dressing or Head Country seasoning or cooking wine or something.
Ingredients:
Boneless skinless chicken breast
1 can (10-3/4 oz) condensed cream of mushroom or cream of chicken soup
1/2 cup water
3/4 cup rice, uncooked
1-1/2 cups chicken broth
1 to 2 cups frozen green beans (I used mix veggies)
Put chicken in the crockpot. Add soup, water, rice and broth. Add green beans or veggies. Cover and cook on low for 6 hours (Mine probably went 8 hours) or until chicken is cooked and rice is tender.

That looks yummy and easy enough that even I could do it ;) lol
ReplyDeleteI am all about easy, few-ingredient meals. I love to cook but not if it's complicated :)
DeleteThat's a great week night meal. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI love crockpot meals on workdays!
DeleteI really need to invest in a crockpot. I've seen all these great recipes that save time too. This one looks super delicious. Thanks for sharing. I think I would have added a bit more seasoning as well. I love cayenne pepper so that would have definitely gone in there :)
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, it is one of my absolute favorite kitchen appliances!!!! So super easy. You can even make things like lasagne and fake apple pie. Even hard things are easy with a crockpot :)
DeleteYum! I love crockpot meals! It's so nice to know that dinner will be ready when my family wants to eat.
ReplyDeleteI totally agree. It's my favorite way to cook :) Except one time I turned it on high instead of low and I had REALLY well done pork chops. Oops.
DeleteI love my crockpot. Thats a good idea for someone looking for chicken idea!
ReplyDeleteThanks, I love mine too!
DeleteI love crockpot meals!! I am so tired when it's time to cook dinner, so crockpot meals make it so much easier. Thanks for the new recipe! :)
ReplyDeleteIt's the best feeling in the world to come home and have dinner already done :)
DeleteI keep adding to my cooking repertoire using Pinterest. So many good recipes. I've used the oven a few times recently and have regretted it. It's so hot here and my air conditioner can't keep up.
ReplyDeleteI still haven't jumped into the world of Pinterest. Maybe one of these days :) And yes, in the summer, crockpot is a much better route!
