From Betty Crocker -- Slow Cooker recipes. NOTE: Posted as written, however, I cook the rice separately usually the night before if it is a work day, refrigerate the rice and then add it during the last 15-20 minutes to avoid mushy rice!

Tips:
- Use good quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make your Crock Pot Chicken and Wild Rice even better. Look for boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs, and use a high-quality wild rice blend.
- Don't overcrowd the slow cooker: Make sure there is enough space for the chicken and rice to cook evenly. If you're using a smaller slow cooker, you may need to cook the chicken and rice in batches.
- Season the chicken well: Before cooking, season the chicken with salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs and spices. This will help to enhance the flavor of the dish.
- Use a flavorful liquid: The liquid you use to cook the chicken and rice will add a lot of flavor to the dish. You can use chicken broth, vegetable broth, or even water. If you're using water, you may want to add a little extra salt and pepper.
- Cook the chicken and rice on low heat: This will help to ensure that the chicken is cooked through and the rice is tender. Cooking the dish on high heat may cause the chicken to dry out or the rice to burn.
- Let the dish rest before serving: Once the chicken and rice is cooked, let it rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the flavors to meld and the rice to absorb any remaining liquid.
Conclusion:
Crock Pot Chicken and Wild Rice is a delicious and easy meal that's perfect for a busy weeknight. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a flavorful and satisfying dish that the whole family will love. So next time you're looking for an easy and delicious meal, give this recipe a try.
