This meal has only 5 ingredients and can be thrown together in a matter of minutes! The 7UP (or Sprite) makes the chicken so moist with a hint of sweetness!
Slow Cooker Chicken and Rice Recipe:
(Recipe from Celebrating Home Magazine)
3 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts (I used 4)
10.5 oz. can of cream of chicken soup
12 oz. can of 7UP or lemon lime soda
1 c. rice (Minute Rice is best)
1/4 c. chicken broth
Place chicken breasts in the bottom of your slow cooker. Cover with soup and 7UP. Cover and cook for 2-3 hours on low. Add rice and chicken broth and cook for 2-3 more hours until chicken is cooked through.
I originally made this meal in my Bean Pot from Celebrating Home. This bean pot makes preparing, cooking and serving family meals quick and simple. It is oven, microwave and dishwasher safe!
Any recipe you would make in your slow cooker can be converted to make in your bean pot! You can put all the ingredients for your next meal in your bean pot and store it in the fridge. When you get home from work, just pop it in the oven, turn it on and within a few hours you'll have an amazing meal!
This bean pot comes in 9 different colors, shapes or sizes so it is sure to match any home decor! You can use this pot everywhere in your kitchen, except on the stove top. You can even brown meat in your microwave using your bean pot from Celebrating Home!
It is perfect for parties or tailgates. You can put your been pot in the freezer for about 20 minutes and use it as an ice bucket to keep your ice from melting. You could also freeze the pot for 20 minutes and use it to hold a cold dish such as a potato or pasta salad and it will keep it colder for up to 2 hours!
If you are looking for a way to simplify cooking roasts, lasagna, ribs, dips, vegetables, cakes and everyday meals, then a bean pot from Celebrating Home is perfect for you!

ReplyDeleteAdd the rice UNCOOKED correct? :)
ReplyDeleteYes. Uncooked. :)
DeleteHi Six Sisters,
ReplyDeleteAnother awesome recipe!!! I'll definitely spread the word! Please keep it comin! I'm always looking for 4-5 ingredient recipes.
P.S.
I've already book marked your post.
If you cook this in the bean pot, you would put all ingredients in (same order as the crock pot?)
ReplyDeleteHi Debbo,
DeleteYes, just put the ingredients in in the same order. Thanks!
Does the rice get too mushy being in there 2-3 hours?
ReplyDeleteHi Amber!
DeleteI didn't have a problem with my rice being mushy since you put it in uncooked.
I posted about this below--we thought it was a bit too mushy but I wonder if using something like Uncle Ben's next time, instead of minute rice, will help.
DeleteI just put the chicken in the corckpot. I am going to add the rice before we leave for SS and worship. The timing should work out perfectly and we can come home to a cool house and a warm lunch. Thanks for the easy recipe.
ReplyDeleteI am new to cooking and have a question. I'm getting ready to make this tomorrow and was wondering if I mix the cream of chicken soup with water before putting it over the chicken or if I mix the soup with the 7-up. thank you!
ReplyDeleteHi Serena!
DeleteJust mix the contents of the can of soup with your 7UP. Hope you like it! Thanks!
Made this tonight... 4 adults including myself all thought it was really bland and overall not good. It LOOKED like the picture and I followed the recipe perfect. My brother in law said it tasted like slop you'd get in jail.
ReplyDeleteWOW what a mean remark. Just don't make it again, that should do you. To tell someone that their recipe tasted like slop was a little uncalled for. I don't know how long ur brother in law has been out of jail(since he knows what the food taste like there) but this does not taste like slop.
DeleteI also made this and it was very bland. Mine also looked just like the picture. If I ever made it again I would be sure to add some seasonings. Anything would help. We did not enjoy it at all.
Delete:( Gotta admit...it was bland.
DeleteThank you so much for this recipe! It was a winner our house!
ReplyDeleteCan I use diet 7UP?
ReplyDeleteHi Margaret!
DeleteI think diet 7UP would work just fine. Let us know how it goes!
I tried this last night, and posted the recipe on my blog! I linked it all back to you; hope that's okay. http://stepmomextraordinaire.blogspot.com/2012/04/things-i-learned-on-pinterest-7up.html
ReplyDeletecan you freeze this recipe? or does it not turn out right?
ReplyDeleteI have never tried to freeze this. I am not sure how it would work freezing it with the uncooked rice, but if you cooked it and then packaged it really good to be frozen, it might work. Let us know if you try it. We would love to hear how it goes!
DeleteWe tried this last week. It was ok. I would probably change out the cream of chicken for cream of mushroom and use bone in chicken drumsticks and thighs bc they give off some flavorful juices.
ReplyDeleteThe chicken was fantastic, but we did think that the rice was too mushy. I will try Uncle Ben's next time, instead of Minute Rice. I would also put in some herbs next time, too, for a little bit of a flavor punch.
ReplyDeleteP.S.--diet 7up worked great in this!
DeleteI am going to go and put this in the crock pot in about an hour. Instead of using sprite I am going to use Pineapple crush. And I buy the zatarin's rice. I am going to use that. Excited!
ReplyDeleteI don't care for cream of chicken, it is way to salty. How would it taste if I just left it out or is there something else I can use? I have chicken base and chicken bouillon, would it be fine to just use one of those without the cream of chicken?
ReplyDeleteI am not sure what you could use as a substitute. I have only ever made it with cream of chicken. I do know they sell low sodium cream of chicken. You could also use cream of mushroom or something similar.
DeleteMy son is lactose intolerant so we make a from scratch substitute of cream of ... soups. Here is the link to the one I use, I just like you add whichever seasonings you like.

I assume the crock temp is low?
ReplyDeleteHi Donna,
DeleteYes, cook it on low the whole time. Thanks!
Donna the recipe says low. :)
ReplyDeleteHow long and at what temp should I use for bean pot in the oven?
ReplyDeleteHi Jeanette! Here are the directions for a bean pot:
DeletePlace chicken breast in bean pot. Cover with soup and 7up. Cover and bake at 350 degrees for 2 hours. Add rice and chicken broth and bake 1 more hour.
Thanks!
Wow! The recipes look great and all, but I want to comment on the 6 sisters! Holy smokes!! I just want to move to Utah-marry all of you-then rest on Sunday!! I'm just sayin :)
ReplyDeleteGreat recipe! Made it tonight and my 2 year old even approved!
ReplyDeleteI made this for dinner tonight. It was ok.
ReplyDeleteHey there! My husband and I are newly married and I was asking my co-workers what they make when they're in a hurry and one of them recommended me to this site. She did warn me that the recipe was a little bland and that I might want to add some of my own seasonings so I did. My husband likes things spicy so I added some Cajun seasoning and cayenne pepper and garlic powder. I wouldn't cook the rice in the crockpot because it does get mushy but if you use the minute rice it'll be quick and easy. Husband says it's an A+ and to keep this recipe in my file! :)
ReplyDeleteI made this for dinner tonight and my husband loved it! I did add a packet of onion soup mix and a pinch of rosemary for extra flavor, and it was yummy! Thanks for the recipe. :-)
ReplyDeleteDo you put the chicken in frozen?
ReplyDeleteHi!
DeleteYes, we used frozen chicken breasts.
just made it tonight and it was delicious! I put the rice in only half an hour before it was done and the rice was perfect no mush!
ReplyDeleteI made this and wrote about it here. It was an easy meal but I used regular rice and it never cooked quite through. It was much better heated up with a bit of water in the microwave. We also topped ours with mexican jalapeno cheese for a bit of spice.
ReplyDeleteI wish i could figure out the trick to cooking rice in the crockpot. So far I've had miserable luck with it.
Thanks for sharing your recipe.
