Here’s A Quick Slow Cooker Chicken And Rice Burrito Bowls Dish

A crowd-pleaser that is super easy to make and super satisfying to the taste buds.

l 002dChicken cooked in a very flavorful broth is just spot on, especially if you cook it for hours. The flavors that sip in the chicken itself will literally melt in your mouth. And it is a perfect match with rice if you want a little more carb into your meal.

This burrito bowl will work well if you have small parties with friends of relatives. And your slow cooker can do the work for you. Cooking it in the slow cooker makes the chicken as tender as you want it to be and the flavors as powerful as it should be.

It is so easy to make and I’m pretty sure it will be a winner to your guests. But do make sure that you cook the chicken first and then add the rice at least 45 minutes before serving. Your rice will turn out fluffy and super yummy. Try it out now and tell me what you think.
