This Creamy Chicken and Rice is made in the slow cooker. It’s so easy to make and delicious on a cold fall or winter day. Just throw everything into the Crock Pot and walk away!
Yes, this is yet another slow cooker recipe. Because, duh. The holidays are basically here between Thanksgiving and Christmas thrown together these days. It’s CRAZY for all the days. I look at my calendars and just cringe most days. I should schedule in sit down and read or catch up on DVR time. Because it ain’t happening anytime soon.
This Creamy Chicken and Rice is a great busy day recipe. I love when I can throw everything into my Crock Pot and walk off until dinner time. I don’t have to pre-cook anything because that’s the job of a slow cooker. Beautiful. Make sure you give this recipe a try. It’ll save you so much time.

Is long-cooking rice the same as long-grained?
mandyrecipebox says
It just means to not use instant rice.
Sue says
What’s the cooking time if I want to use brown rice?
mandyrecipebox says
I would just check it after the same time in the directions. If it’s not done, keep cooking in 30 minute increments and check. I haven’t made this with brown rice.
Jonell says
Can I use a big condensed can of Cream of Chicken soup?
mandyrecipebox says
Yes, you will just have extra sauce.
