Step-by-step cooking
Step 1:
How to make rice with chicken in a slow cooker? Prepare the necessary ingredients for this. For cooking, you can use any part of the chicken or take a whole one and divide it into pieces. Take long-grain rice, as it is less boiled.
Step 2:
Cut the chicken into small pieces. Peel the onions and carrots, rinse them from dirt and chop them. Carrots can be sliced or grated on a coarse grater, and onions just finely chop.
Step 3:
Turn on the slow cooker to the "frying" mode and pour a little vegetable oil. Put the onion and carrot in a hot bowl. Fry the vegetables for a couple of minutes.
Step 4:
Then add the chopped chicken. Stir and fry it together with vegetables for 10-15 minutes. Stir occasionally so that nothing burns.
Step 5:
At this time, rinse the rice several times in cold water. Then drain all the excess water.
Step 6:
Put the washed rice in the bowl of a slow cooker and pour hot water. Add a little salt and spices to taste. Why exactly is hot water needed? Temperature changes are harmful for the bowl, as well as it will not benefit hot meat. And it saves time - the slow cooker does not need to waste time heating the water in the dish.
Step 7:
Put the bowl in the slow cooker, close the lid and turn on the "Grits" mode;(or pilaf) for 25 minutes. After the specified time, the slow cooker will emit a sound signal indicating that the dish is ready. Leave the rice for another 10-15 minutes to walk under the lid. Determine the exact time according to your technique!
Step 8:
Rice with chicken in a slow cooker is ready! Arrange on plates and serve to the table! Bon appetit!
Chicken can be replaced with turkey or any other type of meat at your request. But keep in mind that in this case, the cooking time and calorie content of the dish will change.
Keep in mind that the cooking time and mode in the recipe are indicated approximately. All slow cookers work differently and even the same models of the same manufacturer may have their own characteristics. Before you start cooking a new dish for you in a slow cooker, carefully study the instructions for it, and then in practice try to cook dishes that are familiar to you first, and then new ones, choosing the mode and time individually for your own technique.
If you use ready-made spice mixes, be sure to read the composition on the package. Often, salt is already present in such mixtures, take this into account, otherwise you risk over-salting the dish.
