This delicious and homey one dish meal is very rich and easy. I love how the wild rice cooks in the crock pot, absorbing the flavors of the other ingredients. Ingredients:
6 slices bacon |
1 onion, chopped |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
14 ounces condensed chicken broth |
1 1/3 cups water |
10 ounces condensed cream of chicken soup |
9 ounces baby carrots |
1 1/4 cups wild rice |
1 1/2 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces |
1/4 teaspoon dried marjoram |
Directions:
1. In large skillet, cook bacon until crisp. Remove bacon, crumble and refrigerate. 2. Remove all but 1 tablespoon bacon drippings from skillet. Add onion and garlic to skillet and cook and stir for 2-3 minutes. 3. Stir in broth, water, and condensed soup; cook and stir until bubbly, 3-4 minutes. 4. Place wild rice and carrots in 3-4 quart crock pot. Top with chicken pieces and pour mixture in skillet over chicken. Sprinkle with marjoram. 5. Cover crock pot and cook on HIGH for 1 hour. 6. Stir mixture, making sure wild rice is submerged in liquid. 7. Reduce crock pot setting to LOW and cook, covered, for 6-8 hours until chicken is thoroughly cooked and wild rice is tender. 8. Sprinkle reserved bacon into crock pot during the last 30 minutes of cooking time. |
