Recipe Tips

  • If you're short on time, you can use pre-cooked chicken instead of raw chicken. Simply shred the chicken and add it to the crockpot in step 3.
  • If you don't have long-grain white rice, you can substitute it with brown rice or even quinoa.
  • If you want to make this recipe even easier, you can use frozen diced onions, celery, and green bell peppers instead of fresh ones.
  • This dish is perfect on its own, but you can also serve it with a side salad or some crusty bread to soak up the sauce.
