Seven simple ingredients is all that is in this dish and it is so easy to put together! My family really enjoyed this meal and I will definitely be adding it to our meal rotation.
See the recipe after the jump!
I have never had yellow rice before, and when I was shopping for the ingredients all I found was the Zatarin's brand. I took a little bite of the rice after I cooked it in the microwave, and wow, yellow rice is tasty! It definitely makes the dish, so dont be tempted to substitute plain white rice.
After I tasted the rice, I had to google yellow rice to find out how it was made (Of course). I did find a few recipes that sounded good, so maybe someday I will attempt a huge batch from scratch and then freeze it...
Cheesy Chicken and Yellow Rice in the Crock Pot Adapted from the Southern Plate
Ingredients:
1 pound of boneless skinless chicken breasts
1/2 large onion, chopped
1 -8 ounce box Zatarain's Yellow Rice Mix, cooked according to directions
1 cup Monterey Jack Cheese
1 - 10.5 ounce can cream of chicken soup
1 -15 ounce can whole kernel corn, drained
3/4 cup of sour cream
Directions:
Place the chicken breasts in the crock pot.
Add the chopped onion and spoon the soup on top of the chicken.
Cook on low 7 to 8 hours or high 3 to 4 hours.
At the end of the cooking time, open the crock pot and break the chicken up in to small pieces.
Add the rice, cheese corn and sour cream to the crock pot. Stir until all combined.
Put the lid back on and allow the crock pot to cook for about 10 to 15 more minutes or until everything is warm and the cheese has melted.
Serve and enjoy!

This looks so delicious! I absolutely LOVE crockpot meals and I am excited to add this one to my menu! Thank you!
ReplyDeleteThis recipe is delicious! It's one of my favorite Pinterest finds. To make it a little healthier I have added frozen mixed veggies instead of just corn and changed the yellow rice to brown or wild rice! The yellow rice is awesome too though:) It's a great easy weeknight meal when I know that I won't have time to make dinner. Whoever invented the crockpot deserves a big fat hug!

This looks really good and very family friendly! I have to pin this for the upcoming school year when I will be relying heavily on my crockpot!
ReplyDeleteThis looks delish! is there something substitute for the sour cream though? No one is the house will eat sour cream!
ReplyDeleteYou can leave the sour cream out, the recipe is still good without it...
