Drunken Chicken and Rice (Slow Cooker)

Drunken Chicken and Rice, a quick and easy slow cooker recipe that is so delicious, it will make week night dinners feel special.

Drunken Chicken and Rice, my go-to recipe for those busy weeknights. Very often, when I get asked how am I doing, I always find myself replying "Doing really good, very busy with the family. The children's social calendar can get far more active than the adults."  And that often beckons the next question, "Where do you find time to make dinners most nights of the week?" While I do try my best to make home cooked meals for the family, I do understand that it is sometimes very tempting to just order take out or eat out.

And here is where the help of a slow cooker comes in handy. Using a slow cooker often involves quick and easy preparation and a slow cooking time, which would allow for busy families to have a warm and delicious home cooked meal at the end of the day.
​
Take for example, this slow cooker chicken dish recipe that I am about to share. The chicken can be marinated in a ziplock bag the night before and placed in a slow cooker the next day before you head out to work or go about running your errands for the day. I added some baby bak chop which I popped into the slow cooker to cook for the last 20 min before serving. I also have an electric rice cooker, which is also extremely convenient as I can set the timer for the rice to be cooked and ready at a certain time. If you don't have an electric rice cooker, cooking rice over the stovetop in a pot should take no longer than 20 min. I hope this recipe will help make week night dinners more about quality time with the family over  a warm meal!
