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:

  • To enhance the flavor of the soup, consider using a combination of chicken broth and water. This adds depth and richness to the overall taste.
  • Before adding the chicken breasts to the slow cooker, sear them briefly in a skillet over medium heat. This step helps to develop a nice golden-brown color and enhances the overall flavor of the chicken.
  • For a creamier soup, stir in a cup of heavy cream or half-and-half just before serving. This adds a touch of richness and indulgence to the soup.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different vegetables and seasonings. For instance, you could add chopped carrots, celery, or bell peppers. Or, you could add a teaspoon of dried thyme or rosemary for a more herbaceous flavor.
  • For a gluten-free version of the soup, use gluten-free wild rice and tamari instead of soy sauce.

Conclusion:

Crock-Pot Chicken and Wild Rice Soup is a hearty, flavorful, and comforting soup that's perfect for a cold winter day. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own preferences. With its combination of tender chicken, savory vegetables, and fluffy wild rice, this soup is sure to be a hit with the whole family. So next time you're looking for a delicious and satisfying meal, give this recipe a try.
