- Meanwhile, in medium bowl, mix flour, Montreal chicken seasoning and salt. Add chicken, and toss to coat; set aside.
- Increase heat to medium-high. Add chicken to skillet, and cook 4 to 5 minutes or until browned on first side. Turn chicken, and cook 1 to 2 minutes longer or until beginning to brown. Meanwhile, mix broth, wild rice, green onion whites, celery and carrot in slow cooker. Refrigerate green onion greens.
- Add chicken and pan drippings to rice mixture in slow cooker. Cover and cook on Low heat setting 7 to 8 hours. Chop chicken, and return to cooker; stir in 3 cups of the cheese, replace cover and heat 10 to 15 minutes or until cheese is almost melted. Stir in whipping cream. Divide soup among 8 bowls.
