Crock Pot Chicken and Rice

I needed a REALLY fast - absolutely no prep time - meal for dinner the other night and luckily stumbled across this beauty. Just mix the ingredients and throw them in the crock pot. No browning the chicken or cutting up any veggies. Just what the doctor ordered! (Recipe from here.)



Ingredients:
6 tablespoons butter
6 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 (2 ounce) package onion soup mix (dry)
1 cup rice
¼ cup parmesan cheese
1 ½ cups milk
2 (10 ounce) cans cream soup (mushroom or celery)
½ teaspoon black pepper
Directions: 
Mix dry soup to wet soup and rice and milk in a bowl. Lay chicken in lightly greased crock pot. Place 1 tablespoons butter on top of each piece of chicken.  Season with pepper and sprinkle the parmesan cheese on top.
Cook in crock pot for 8-10 hours on low or 4-6 hours on high.



This was really delicious - but a little strong for my "bland-seeking" pregnancy tastebuds. I think next time I would add more milk or water to make it a little more soupy and a little less... strong. Also, I might consider making the rice separately, since I have terribly luck and my rice always seems a little undercooked. Other than that it was fabulous!
