CROCK-POT CHEESY MEXICAN CHICKEN AND RICE



Crock-Pot Cheesy Mexican Chicken and Rice image

A delicious combination of cheese, chicken, salsa and rice. I created this recipe when I needed to make dinner in the crockpot because my husband was redoing the floors in the kitchen and I had no stove to use. Thanks to him a new chicken recipe was born. I use my homemade canned salsa but any salsa will do. Also, we mostly eat chicken breast, but you can use any type of chicken. The cooking time will need adjusted longer for dark meat or chicken on the bone. There are several variations for this recipe such as adding beans, corn, mushrooms, etc. The possibilities are endless.

CROCK POT MEXICAN CHICKEN AND SPANISH RICE



Crock Pot Mexican Chicken and Spanish Rice image

My husband was out of town and I wanted mexican food. So I decided to experiment. I have made this several times since and it has been a big hit with everyone. I have sherred or sliced the chicken and mixed with the rice. The chicken is also good as chicken tacos. I just recently used the chicken to make enchiladas and served the rice on the side. I have plans to try this same recipe with beef.

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 5h5m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 -4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (frozen or thawed)
1 cup water
1/4 cup taco seasoning
0.5 (15 1/2 ounce) jar salsa
2 cups instant rice

Steps:

  • Place chicken in to crock pot. Mix water, taco seasoning, and salsa (I use half the jar) together. Pour onto chicken. Set crock pot to low and let it cook for 3 to 4 hours.
  • After chicken is done remove and put rice in leftover liquid. While rice is cooking shredded or slice chicken.
  • Once rice is done (about 10 to 20, depending on how cooked you like your rice) mix chicken in or serve as taco or make enchiladas with the chicken.

FIESTA CHICKEN WITH BARLEY AND BROWN RICE (CROCK POT)



Fiesta Chicken With Barley and Brown Rice (Crock Pot) image

I came up with this when I couldn't decide between chicken cacciatore or something more Tex-Mex. I also wanted a "real" meal without having to work too hard at it. We really enjoyed this. Other cuts of chicken can be used, although I recommend staying away from boneless skinless breasts because I think they tend to dry out in a slow cooker. Since every one's crock pots heat differently and grains can be tricky to cook in a CP, you may have to fool a little bit with the timing on the rice and barley. You could also make that separately and just add it in at serving time. Cooked the way I did it, it almost had a risotto-like texture to it.
