CHICKEN AND WILD RICE SLOW COOKER DINNER



Chicken and Wild Rice Slow Cooker Dinner image

I found this on a card supplied at the butcher's counter at Harris Teeter Grocery. The only change I made was to omit the marjoram leaves due to personal preference but I've added it back to the recipe as an option here. If you don't have bone-in chicken breasts you can use bone-in chicken thighs (about 10 thighs or 3 1/2 lbs). Remember to remove the skin of the chicken and any really visible fat deposits.

30 MINUTE CHICKEN AND RICE DINNER BY ACCIDENT



30 Minute Chicken and Rice Dinner by Accident image

Basically it's a Campbell's chicken and soup recipe that I had tweaked. I had 4 hungry friends over and no real food or money since where in college (this is a cheap dinner to make and easy to double good for big families). All I had on hand was chicken and rice and mushroom soup. Lucky I had a few spare items on hand. I didn't like the idea of chicken just sitting there in cream of mushroom soup for an hour in the oven with rice. So I tweaked it with white wine and made it on the stovetop we couldn't wait an hour. With the brown bits it made the greyish looking soup into a pretty golden color and the garlic woke everything up. The Uncle Ben flavor rices are awesome--when you're in a pinch I totally recommend them. You can also use egg noodles--it makes it a bit more richer. Ever since then, I get this request about twice a week and people still don't believe its cream of mushroom soup--who knew !

Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 35m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 -6 chicken breasts, flattened out
1 (8 7/8 ounce) packet of uncle ben's garlic and butter flavorful rice pilaf mix

1 tablespoon white wine
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
3 tablespoons butter (unsalted)
3 garlic cloves, mashed
1/2 cup of shredded parmesan cheese
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • In a saucepan, add oil and 2 tablespoons of butter; let melt and then add chicken breasts. Cook until golden brown and juices run clear.
  • While chicken is cooking, follow package directions for rice (it takes about 10 to 15 minutes I've found).
  • In saucepan deglaze pan with wine.
  • Don't get rid of those yummy brown bits--it gives this sauce flavor.
  • Add garlic, cream of mushroom soup and milk; stir until creamy.
  • Add cheese.
  • When rice is cooked, pour into mushroom mixture. Add chicken and season with salt and pepper.
  • Let cook for another 5 minutes.
  • Serve with salad and garlic bread. Serves 4.
  • You can also leave the rice separate and just put the chicken in the sauce--either way, it's your choice.

CHICKEN AND RICE SKILLET DINNER WITH A KICK



Chicken and Rice Skillet Dinner with a Kick image

With the corn, black beans and picante sauce, this recipe is so colorful ... and tasty. I didn't have any canned chicken, so I cooked up two chicken breasts and it worked perfectly. This dish is a little spicy, but not overpowering. Adjust the seasonings to your taste.

Provided by Cecelia Anderson

Categories     Chicken

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 10 oz. cans of canned chicken breast, drained
1 can(s) 10.5 oz chicken broth
1 c mild pace picante sauce
1 tsp cumin
1 Tbsp olive oil (I prefer)
1 c minute rice (or any brand instant rice)
1 c black beans rinsed and drained
1 c frozen whole kernel corn
1/2 c shredded cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • 1. Heat 1 Tablespoon oil in a 10-inch skillet over medium heat.
  • 2. Add the rice and cook and stir until its golden.
  • 3. Stir in broth, picante sauce and cumin and heat to a boil. Cover and cook for 15 minutes
  • 4. Reduce the heat to low, stir in the canned chicken, beans, and corn. Top with cheese and cover and cook for 5 minutes.
  • 5. Burrito Variation: Do steps 1 to 3. Then for step 4 omit the beans and corn and cook the drained chicken with the rice mixture for 5 minutes. In a hot skillet place one tortilla in pan and heat about 10-15 seconds per side until warm and flexible. Place tortilla on a plate; add a portion of the chicken, and rice mixture and top with cheese. Make sure all ingredients are near the middle of the tortilla. Starting from the end closest to you, fold tortilla just over the middle, covering the filling. Carefully fold in both side of the tortilla over the filling, then finish folding to the end, wrapping it all up.

CREAMY RICE, CHICKEN, AND SPINACH DINNER



CREAMY RICE, CHICKEN, AND SPINACH DINNER image

Categories     Dinner

Number Of Ingredients 8

.25 c Italian Dressing
1 lb chicken
1.5 c chicken broth
2 c brown rice
4 oz cream cheese
8 oz baby spinach
1 medium tomato, chopped
2 T Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Heat dressing in large deep skillet on medium-high heat. Add chick; cook 3 min. Add broth; bring to boil. Stir in rice; return to boil. Cover. Reduce heat to medium; simmer 5 min. Stir cream cheese into rice mixture until melted. Add spinach; cover. Cook 1 min or until spinach is wilted. Stir rice mixture gently to mix in spinach. Cover. Let stand 5 min. Stir in tomatoes, sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all the ingredients and equipment you need. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling during the cooking process.
  • Choose the right rice: There are many different types of rice available, so choose one that is best suited for your dish. For this recipe, long-grain rice is a good option because it cooks up fluffy and separate.
  • Rinse the rice: Rinsing the rice before cooking helps to remove the starch, which prevents the rice from becoming sticky.
  • Cook the rice according to the package directions: Different types of rice have different cooking times, so be sure to follow the instructions on the package of rice you are using.
  • Do not overcook the chicken: Overcooked chicken is tough and dry. Cook the chicken until it is just cooked through, about 8-10 minutes per side.
  • Season the chicken well: Season the chicken with salt, pepper, and garlic powder before cooking. This will help to enhance the flavor of the chicken.
  • Use fresh vegetables: Fresh vegetables will give your dish the best flavor. If you don't have fresh vegetables on hand, you can use frozen or canned vegetables.
  • Add the vegetables at the right time: Add the vegetables to the dish towards the end of the cooking process so that they remain tender-crisp.
  • Serve the dish immediately: Chicken and rice is best served immediately after it is cooked. This will ensure that the rice is fluffy and the chicken is juicy.

Conclusion:

Chicken and rice is a classic dish that is enjoyed by people of all ages. It is a simple dish to make, but it can be very flavorful. By following the tips above, you can make a delicious and satisfying chicken and rice dinner that your family and friends will love.
