Crock Pot Rice Recipe

Making rice in a crock pot is a hands-off and foolproof way to get perfectly cooked rice every time. This method works well for meal prep or when you need an easy side dish.


Ingredients (Serves 4-6):

  • 2 cups long-grain white rice (or brown rice)
  • 4 cups water or broth (adjust liquid for brown rice; see tips)
  • 1 tbsp butter or olive oil (optional)
  • 1/2 tsp salt (optional)

Instructions

  1. Rinse the Rice:

    • Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear. This removes excess starch and prevents the rice from becoming gummy.
  2. Prepare the Crock Pot:

    • Lightly grease the crock pot with butter or olive oil to prevent sticking.
  3. Combine Ingredients:

    • Add the rinsed rice, water or broth, butter, and salt to the crock pot. Stir to distribute everything evenly.
  4. Cook the Rice:

    • Cover and cook on high for 1.5-2 hours for white rice or 2.5-3 hours for brown rice. Avoid opening the lid during cooking to retain steam.
  5. Check for Doneness:

    • After the cooking time, check the rice. If the liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender, it’s done. If not, add a little more liquid and cook for an additional 15-20 minutes.
  6. Fluff and Serve:

    • Use a fork to fluff the rice before serving.

Tips:

  • For Brown Rice: Use 5 cups of water or broth for 2 cups of rice.
  • Add aromatics like garlic, onion, or a bay leaf to enhance the flavor.
  • For extra flavor, cook the rice in chicken, vegetable, or beef broth instead of water.

Storage:

  • Store cooked rice in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 3 months. Reheat with a splash of water to restore moisture.

This crock pot rice recipe is easy, reliable, and perfect for busy days when you want a no-fuss way to cook rice! 🍚
