Nestled in the heartland, where the earth is rich and folks appreciate a good, hearty meal, there’s a tradition of slow cookin’ that turns simple ingredients into something magical. Italian Chicken & Rice prepared in the slow cooker is a dish that reminds me of days gone by, yet it stands steadfast in present day kitchens. A marvel for its ease and flavor, it brings together the robust zest of Italian cuisine with the comforting, starchy goodness of rice—a fusion that could likely have roots in the immigrant stories crisscrossing America’s heartland. It’s the kind of recipe to pull out when the day ahead is bustling but the soul yearns for a home-cooked meal at day’s end.
This Slow Cooker Italian Chicken & Rice is quite fulfilling on its own, but it sure does pair nicely with a crisp green salad dressed in balsamic vinaigrette. For those with a bigger appetite, some freshly baked garlic bread or a side of green beans sautéed in butter and garlic would honor the table nicely.
