Cooking time? In the cooking and prep time it states 1hr 1min. Later, in the prep time it states a lengthy cooking time. So, what is the time to cook this????
Also, I have no idea what “chicken bottoms” are. Can I use chicken breasts?
Follow the cooking time in the instructions, the cook and prep time is incorrect and we will change that. Chicken bottoms are the thigh and the leg still attached but you can use any type of chicken that you’d like.
But… Thank you, Esther Leah. Your suggestion is helpful. Maybe, though, there is some way to not have to make this in stages? Like, set it and forget it kind of thing. With the smallest flame set on the lowest setting. Well, in any case, we’ll see what happens and have to report back. Good Shabbos!
I’ve never tried to set it and walk away. It is really just two steps. It might work, but be sure to put enough water so the rice doesn’t burn. By the way, one of the spices I use is smoked paprika, about 1/2 of a teaspoon and it just takes this dish to a different level. The truth is that I put a lot of sweet paprika, (the Hungarian in me) but as I said, it’s good whatever you like. Good luck, let me know and have a great Shabbos.
Chicken and rice Is there a way to make this on the stovetop? Maybe with a low flame?
I do this on the stovetop all of the time. I don’t put sweet potato, but there is no reason not to. I cook chopped onion and garlic till golden and brown the chicken on both sides letting it cook till some of the natural juice come out. Then I cover the chicken with water and add the spices I want (you can as well or use the spicing in this recipe as a guide). At this point, if I were to use sweet potato or any other vegetable, I would add now. let the chicken cook until the juices run clear and the chicken is tender to your liking. Take the chicken out (and added vegetables) on the side. Check to see if there is enough water for the rice. If not add the amount necessary, add a teaspoon of salt, and add the rice. Let the rice cook till done stirring occasionally. Once the rice is done, add the chicken back to the pot. The rice absorbs all of the yummy flavor from the chicken. I have also done this with pasta. It is a hit every time. Good luck
Oven Can this recipe be done in the oven?
I do make this in an oven. All the time! Cover tightly and cook on low. You can even do it overnight.
When you say ‘cook on low’, what temp do you mean?
I would do 300 till it’s cooked through. I have been known to cook my chicken at 200 overnight but never with rice, so I can’t tell you what would happen there.
sounds delicious hi i love these simple non-exotic recipes!!
did you ever try this with brown rice? would i add more water for brown rice?
I would keep it the same…..Keep an eye on water if it seems dry, add 1/4 cup at a time.
Delicious hearty one pan meal!!! I served this before a fast day and it kept us going through the fast.
This was a great, easy supper, perfect for days when there’s no time to make supper.
I set up everything the night before in the crockpot, put it in the fridge and the next day all I had to do was place it on the crockpot.
A few comments:
1. The chicken could’ve used a bit of flavor too, so you might want to sprinkle some extra spices on top.
2. I recommend taking the skin off the chicken, unless you’re going to be eating it, so that you get to eat all the flavor.
3. There was a lot of salt in this recipe! I halved the salt (1.5 teaspoons), and no one missed it at all.
Can this recipe work if I remove the skin from the chicken?
Yes, it should still work.
Can this recipe be put in the freezer please?
Mendel M
Yes 🙂
PLEASE SEND MORE INSTANTA POT RECIPES THANK YOU
This is delicious, made it on vacation- we left in the morning and came back to ready amazing supper. I used both sweet potatoes and regular potatoes.
can you substitute regular potatoes?
yes
Does this work to make on Friday in the slow cook and keep on low for shabbos lunch?
Yes, it should work. I don’t see why not 🙂
I’ve made this again and again! I do this recipe in the oven on low and add some water every hour. I love that it’s an entire meal in one pan and always comes out great. This is the best rice you’ve ever had! I do sprinkle some extra spices just onto the chicken; otherwise only the rice has flavoring. Enjoy!
Delish. Thanks Rochel!
