Recipe Expert Tips
Do not overcook or the rice will turn to mush.
If you are using bone-in chicken breasts after the chicken has finished cooking you will need to remove the cooked chicken from the bone before returning it to the crock pot. You should also skim the broth with a small fine-meshed strainer to make sure all of the bones have been removed from the broth to prevent choking on a bone.
