HOW TO MAKE RICE AND CHICKEN IN A RICE COOKER

While we love the flavors of a traditional chicken and rice bake, let’s leave the oven off today!

Your rice, chicken and vegetables will all cook to perfection at the same time. And all you had to do was press a button! When the timer sounds off, plate it up and eat it up!

The broth cooked brown rice pilaf is savory and nutty. And the rosemary topped steamed chicken is tender perfection.

Ease: level 10.

Flavor: off the charts!
