Notes

Ingredients

  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ onion, chopped
  • 3 cups chicken broth
  • 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup
  • 1½ cups uncooked brown rice
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
 

Instructions

  1. Combine ingredients:
    Add the chicken, garlic, salt, pepper, onion, chicken broth, cream of chicken soup, and brown rice to your crock pot. Stir everything together until well mixed.
  2. Slow cook:
    Cover and cook on high for 3½ to 4 hours, or until the rice is fully cooked and has absorbed the broth.
  3. Add cheese:
    Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese. Cover again and let the cheese melt from the heat of the dish, about 5 to 7 minutes.
  4. Serve:
    Stir and serve warm. Enjoy!
 

Tips & Notes

  • Use brown rice: It holds up better during the long cook time. Avoid white rice—it may become mushy.
  • Adjust thickness: If the dish is too thick, stir in extra chicken broth a little at a time (about ¼ cup) until it reaches your desired consistency.
  • Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
