Crock Pot Tomato And Rice Casserole Recipes

Steps:

• In a skillet, saute the rice in butter until the rice is golden brown; place in crock pot.
• Pour the tomato liquid, tomatoes, parsley, salt and pepper into the crock pot; mix well.
• Cover and cook on LOW setting for 6 to 8 hours.
• Before serving, sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese and chopped chives.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Heat the oil in a large dutch oven and add the garlic and onions. Cook, 3 to 4 minutes. Reduce the heat to low and add the rice. Stir constantly, making sure the rice doesn't burn. Cook over low heat, about 3 minutes.
• Next, add the whole tomatoes, diced tomatoes, cumin, salt, pepper, cayenne and turmeric. Stir to combine and let cook, about 2 minutes. Finally, add the chicken broth and stir the mixture together. Bring the mixture to a boil, and then reduce heat to low. Cover, and simmer until the rice is not quite done, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Top with the cheese, and then bake with the lid off until the cheese is melted and the rice fully cooked, about 15 minutes. Serve with chopped cilantro.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Trim excess fat from thighs. Wash and pat dry. Season moderately with pepper.
• Heat 2 tablespoons butter and olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add chicken thighs and cook until well browned, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Pour sherry over top. Remove chicken to a plate. Drain excess fat, leaving about 2 tablespoons drippings in the skillet.
• Add onion and bell pepper to the skillet and saute over medium heat until onions are translucent and peppers have softened, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add rice and saute for 2 minutes. Add chicken stock, bay leaf, salt, pepper, and saffron; bring to a boil.
• Remove from the heat and lay chicken thighs in a single layer over the rice mixture.
• Bake, covered tightly, in the preheated oven for 45 minutes.
• When the casserole has about 5 minutes left, melt remaining tablespoon butter in a skillet. Add tomato slices and saute until heated through.
• Place a tomato slice on top of each chicken thigh, then sprinkle Parmesan cheese over top. Return to the oven and bake, uncovered, until chicken juices run clear, about 15 more minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• Let rest for at least 15 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
• Saute the onion, carrots, celery and garlic, stirring occasionally, until the onion has softened (about 5 min).
• Add sauteed veggies to slow cooker.
• Add vegetable stock, rice, sun dried tomatoes, salt, pepper and saffron.
• Cover and cook for 4 hours on low until the rice is cooked and the liquid has been absorbed.
• Stir in the peas, peppers and lemon juice using a fork.
• Cover and cook on high for 15 minutes until hot and peppers are tender.
• Sprinkle with parsley.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine all ingredients. Place in a greased 2-qt. baking dish. Cover and bake at 400° for 1-1/2 hours, stirring once or twice. Uncover during the last 15 minutes to brown.
