How to make chicken in a slow cooker
Place the chicken breasts into your Crock Pot.
Spoon out the cream of mushroom soup over the top of the chicken breasts.
Using a soup can, fill twice with milk, pouring over the soup.
Turn Crock Pot on low and let cook for 6-8 hours.
Cook rice according to directions. I do 3 c of boiling water to 3 ¼ Minute White Rice.
While rice is cooking shred or dice your chicken and place back into the crockpot giving it a nice big stir.
Taste and add salt and pepper to your family’s taste.
My Husband enjoys a dash (or two or three) of Red Hot on his…enjoy!
