SLOW COOKER CREAMY CHICKEN SOUP WITH LEMON, RICE AND DILL



Slow Cooker Creamy Chicken Soup With Lemon, Rice and Dill image

This lightly creamy and incredibly comforting soup is all about the almost-austere interplay of chicken, broth, white rice and lemon. It's also a great way to use up leftover rice: Any variety will work. Tempering the yolks (slowly whisking hot broth into them) ensures that they will emulsify and thicken the soup, and not scramble. Use a half cup of lemon juice for an assertively tart soup, but, for a gentler effect, use the smaller amount. If you prefer, you can use an equivalent weight of chicken legs instead of thighs.

Time 6h20m

Yield 4 to 5 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 large yellow onion, peeled and quartered
2 carrots, peeled, trimmed and halved
2 celery stalks, halved
5 large garlic cloves, peeled
1 bay leaf
3 1/2 to 4 pounds bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (about 8 thighs)
6 cups chicken broth or stock
Black pepper
Kosher salt
2 cups cooked white rice
1/3 to 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice (from about 2 large lemons), more as needed
4 large egg yolks
1/2 cup sour cream
1 small bunch dill, chopped

Steps:

  • Combine the onion, carrot, celery, garlic and bay leaf in a 5- to 8-quart slow cooker. Pull the skin off half of the thighs and discard it (or save to render the fat at another time). Add the chicken to the slow cooker and top with broth. Season generously with pepper. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt if you are using low-sodium broth or 1 teaspoon salt if using homemade unsalted stock. (Do not add salt now if you are using fully salted broth.) Cover and cook on low for at least 4 hours and up to 6 hours. If it's more convenient, you can let the slow cooker switch to warm after 6 hours. The soup will hold on warm for about another 2 hours before the chicken starts to dry out.
  • With a spoon or ladle, skim and discard any obvious foam and fat from the top of the soup. With tongs or a slotted spoon, remove the chicken and vegetables to a bowl and strain the broth. Discard the vegetables (or if they still have flavor, set them aside for a snack) and let the chicken cool while you finish the soup. Return the broth to the slow cooker, and switch the heat to high. Stir in the rice, cover and let the soup heat up until it is at least steaming hot, or bubbling a bit around the edges, about 10 minutes.
  • Whisk the lemon juice, egg yolks and sour cream in a medium bowl until creamy and combined. Dip a liquid measuring cup into the hot broth. While whisking constantly, very slowly drizzle about 2 cups of hot broth into the lemon juice mixture until fully combined and smooth. Pour this mixture into the slow cooker with the rest of the soup and whisk for another minute or so, until the soup starts to thicken enough to lightly coat the back of a spoon. Coarsely shred the chicken meat and add it into the soup, discarding the bones and skin. Stir in the dill and taste the soup. Add salt if necessary, and more lemon juice and black pepper if you like. If the soup isn't hot enough, cover and let heat on high for another 10 minutes.

SLOW-COOKER CREAMY MUSHROOM CHICKEN WITH RICE



Slow-Cooker Creamy Mushroom Chicken With Rice image

By Sarah Olson This is a comforting meal in one pot! I love slow-cooker recipes where I can cook the starch in with the meat. This slow-cooker creamy mushroom chicken has the rice added at the end of the cooking time. I use Minute instant white rice because regular rice can get gluey-tasting in the slow cooker. This kind of rice has been precooked, then dried, which is why it does so well in the slow cooker. You can experiment with your own seasonings with this recipe! Switch it up with basil or tarragon, or use whatever your favorite seasoning is. I cook the chicken, garlic, seasonings, onions and mushrooms with chicken broth in the slow cooker. After this is done cooking, I stir in the magic: sour cream and dry Minute white rice. Then I add the lid back on the slow cooker. About 30 minutes later, the rice has fluffed up around the chicken. You can also use precooked-style brown rice if you want; it will take about 15 minutes longer to fluff up. All you have to do to get this meal on the table is steam up some green beans or asparagus.

Time 4h45m

Yield 5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 lbs boneless skinless chicken thighs
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 cup diced white onion
2 cups sliced mushrooms
1 (15 ounce) can chicken broth
1 cup sour cream
3 cups MINUTE White Rice

Steps:

  • Directions:.
  • 1. Add the chicken to a six-quart or larger slow cooker. Sprinkle the chicken with the salt, pepper, oregano, thyme and garlic. Add the onion and mushrooms on top, then pour in the chicken broth.
  • 2. Cover and cook on high for four hours. Don't open the lid during the cooking time.
  • 3. When the cooking time is up, remove the chicken thighs and place on a plate. Stir in the sour cream until it dissolves into the broth, then stir in the instant rice. Sprinkle with a touch more oregano if desired. Add the chicken back into the slow cooker. Cover and cook on high for 30 minutes more, or if you use instant brown rice, cook for 45 minutes more instead of 30. Serve and enjoy!

Tips:

  • Use high-quality rice: Medium or long-grain rice works best for this recipe. Jasmine rice, basmati rice, or white rice are all good choices.
  • Rinse the rice thoroughly before cooking: This will remove any excess starch and help the rice cook evenly.
  • Use a slow cooker with a lid that fits tightly: This will help to create a moist cooking environment and prevent the rice from drying out.
  • Add enough liquid: The amount of liquid you add will depend on the type of rice you are using. For most types of rice, you will need about 1 1/2 cups of liquid for every cup of rice.
  • Season the rice: You can add salt, pepper, and other spices to taste. You can also add herbs, such as parsley, thyme, or rosemary.
  • Cook the rice on low heat for 6-8 hours: This will allow the rice to cook slowly and evenly.
  • Stir the rice gently once or twice during cooking: This will help to prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom of the slow cooker.
  • Let the rice rest for 5-10 minutes before serving: This will allow the rice to absorb any remaining liquid and fluff up.

Conclusion:

Slow-cooked creamy rice is a delicious and easy side dish that can be served with a variety of main courses. It is also a great way to use up leftover rice. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make a creamy and flavorful rice dish that your whole family will enjoy.
