Ingredients
3 chicken thighs, boneless, skinless1 cup fat free evaporated milk1/2 cup chicken broth1 Tbsp all purpose white flour1 cup dry brown rice1.5 cups water, plus 1/2 cup1 cup frozen corn1 cup frozen broccoli2 Tbsps. butter1/8 cup chopped red onion
Place chicken thighs, evaporated milk, onion, and chicken broth in slow cooker and cook on low for 6 hours.
1 hour prior to the end of cooking time cook the brown rice. Best way to cook long grain brown rice I have found is to use 1 cup rice to 1.5 cups water. Put these in a pot on the stove over high heat and bring to a boil. Once the water and rice are boiling cover the pot, reduce the heat to low, and simmer for 20 minutes. After 20 minutes remove from heat, however keep the pot covered for at least 10 minutes. I like very soft rice, so I actually left mine covered and put it in the refrigerator while I went to work out for one hour.
After 6 hours shred chicken in the slow cooker, then add the rest of the ingredients. Let the casserole cook for about 1 more hour on high or until thoroughly heated.
Divide into 4 even servings and enjoy!
