Angel chicken rice is a creamy, flavorful, and comforting dish made with tender chicken breasts, a rich sauce, and served over a bed of rice. It’s perfect for weeknight dinners and can easily be made in a slow cooker for added convenience.

Ingredients

Scale

For the chicken and sauce:

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 packet (30 g) Italian salad dressing mix
  • 1 can (300 g) condensed cream of mushroom soup
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine (or extra chicken broth for a non-alcoholic version)
  • 1 package (225 g) cream cheese, softened
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste

For the rice:

  • 2 cups long-grain white rice, cooked according to package instructions
  • 4 cups water or chicken broth

For garnish (optional):

  • Chopped fresh parsley
  • Grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

  1. Prepare the chicken:
    • Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
  2. Make the sauce:
    • In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the cream cheese and stir until smooth and melted.
    • Stir in the Italian dressing mix, condensed cream of mushroom soup, chicken broth, white wine, and garlic powder. Cook for 2–3 minutes, whisking constantly, until the sauce is smooth and well combined.
  3. Cook the chicken:
    • If using a slow cooker, place the chicken breasts in the slow cooker and pour the sauce over them. Cook on low for 5–6 hours or high for 2–3 hours, until the chicken is tender.
    • If using the stovetop, place the chicken breasts in the skillet with the sauce. Cover and simmer over low heat for 25–30 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and tender.
  4. Cook the rice:
    • While the chicken cooks, prepare the rice according to the package instructions. Use chicken broth instead of water for added flavor.
  5. Serve:
    • Spoon the cooked rice onto plates. Top with the chicken and generous amounts of the creamy sauce. Garnish with parsley or Parmesan cheese if desired.

Notes

  • Substitute the cream of mushroom soup with cream of chicken soup if preferred.
  • You can use bone-in chicken thighs for added flavor; adjust cooking time accordingly.
  • Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated gently on the stovetop or in the microwave.
