How to Make Chicken Rice Bowl in a Crock Pot

Aunt Lou here.

I am pretty sure that life never slows down, so that is why I love a good, easy recipe, and this Chicken Crock Pot Rice Bowl is just that. You just dump in the ingredients, let the crock pot do the work, make the rice, shred the chicken and enjoy! My 13-year-old loves to cook, and this recipe is so easy that I felt confident giving him the instructions and letting him put it on with me just standing by. He did a great job! So, even if you are new to cooking, you can do this too!

(Psst…if you would rather make this recipe with pork, you can find the recipe I based this one on here.)

As with any of our recipes, carb counts, calorie counts and nutritional information varies greatly. As a result, your nutritional content depends on which products you choose to use when cooking this dish. The auto-calculation is just an automated estimate and should NOT be used for specific dietary needs.
All slow cookers cook differently, so cooking times are always a basic guideline. Recipes should always be tested first in your own slow cooker and time adjusted as needed.
