Ingredients
Chicken breasts
Minced garlic
Salt and pepper

Brown rice (uncooked)
Shredded cheddar cheese
Instructions
- In the crock pot, combine chicken broth, minced garlic, salt, pepper, chopped onion, cream of chicken soup, and uncooked brown rice.
- Stir everything until well combined.
- Cover and cook on high for 3½ to 4 hours, or until the rice has absorbed all the broth and is tender.
- Once the rice is cooked, stir in the shredded cheddar cheese.
- Cover again and let sit for a few minutes so the cheese melts fully into the dish.
- Serve warm and enjoy!
Notes
- This recipe makes about 4–6 servings.
- For a veggie boost, consider adding diced bell peppers or frozen peas in the last 30 minutes of cooking.
- For a spicier version, add a dash of cayenne pepper or a few slices of jalapeño.
- If you’re out of cream of chicken soup, a homemade version with butter, flour, milk, and chicken broth works well.
- For extra richness, stir in sour cream or cream cheese along with the shredded cheese.
