Ingredients
  

  • 4 boneless , skinless chicken breasts (about 2 pounds)
  • 1 cup long-grain rice , uncooked
  • 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom soup
  • 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 package dry onion soup mix
  • Ø Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Ø Optional: 1 cup sliced mushrooms
  • Ø Optional: 1 cup frozen mixed vegetables

Substitution Options:

  • Ø For a lighter version , use low-sodium, fat-free cream soups
  • Ø Brown rice can replace white rice (will need additional cooking time)
  • Ø Use turkey breasts instead of chicken
  • Ø For Diabetic Crockpot Recipes , substitute cauliflower rice for regular rice and use low-sodium, low-fat ingredients

Instructions

  • Step 1: Prepare Your Crockpot
    Lightly coat your crockpot with non-stick spray or a thin layer of olive oil. This prevents sticking and makes cleanup much easier. Pro tip: Use a crockpot liner for even quicker cleanup – 92% of regular slow cooker users report that liners save them significant cleaning time.
    Step 2: Layer the Rice
    Add the uncooked rice to the bottom of the crockpot, spreading it evenly. If you're using the forgotten chicken recipe with cauliflower rice for a diabetic-friendly version, you'll add this later in the cooking process instead.
    Step 3: Mix the Liquid Ingredients
    In a separate bowl, combine the cream of mushroom soup, cream of chicken soup, chicken broth, and dry onion soup mix. Whisk until well blended. This mixture creates the rich, flavorful sauce that will cook both the chicken and rice to perfection.
    Step 4: Add Chicken and Vegetables
    Place the chicken breasts on top of the rice. If using mushrooms or mixed vegetables, scatter them around the chicken. Season everything with salt and pepper according to your taste preferences.
    Step 5: Pour Soup Mixture and Set
    Pour the soup mixture evenly over the chicken and rice. Make sure all the rice is submerged in liquid to ensure proper cooking. Set your crockpot to low for 7-8 hours or high for 4-5 hours. Now you can forget about it until mealtime!
