Comfort Food for Sunday

Last night I was going through my cookbooks while nervously watching the Badgers beat Michigan State and head back to the Rose Bowl.  Go Bucky!!!!  I found this recipe for my slow cooker that screamed comfort food so I am going to give it a try. 

Herbed Chicken with Wild Rice

1 package (6 oz) of lone grain and wild rice mix
6 boneless skinless chicken breast halves
1 tbsp canola oil
1 tsp butter
1/2 lb sliced fresh mushrooms
1 can (10 3/4 condensed cream of chicken soup
1 cup water
3 strips of bacon cooked and crumbled
1 tsp dried parsley
1/2 tsp dried thyme
1/4 tsp dried tarragon

1. Place rice in a 5 qt slow cooker; set aside seasoning packet.  In a large skillet, brown chicken in the oil and butter.  Add to the slow cooker.  In the same skillet, saute mushrooms until tender; place over chicken.
2.  In a small bowl, combine the soup, water, bacon, herbs and contents of seasoning packet.  Pour over top.  Cover and cook on low for 4 hrs or until meat thermometer reads 170.

My kitchen smells yummy while this meal is cooking and I am going to serve this a loaf of crusty bread.  I hope you give this recipe a try.
