I put all these things in a CROCKPOT on low for several hours, until chicken was cooked and rice was tender (about 3 hours). SO GOOD! I did a few things different: I used dried celery seed instead of celery because I didn't have any in the fridge, and I omitted carrots because my husband strangely doesn't like cooked carrots (weird, I know). I also used dried parsley instead of fresh, and I used red onion instead of yellow, because it's SO much prettier with the parsley. Looks very colorful and tastes AMAZING with the nutmeg. And OMG. I have a new respect for what nutmeg does to a chicken dish.

I have a phobia of cooking chicken on the stove so I used rotisserie. I sautéed the onions in butter and then added the carrots and celery. Once those were a bit soft I added chicken bone broth, parsley, wild rice, chicken, salt, pepper, and some cumin. Followed the directions exactly from there. This was my fourth time making it. It’s such a hit in this house that this time I doubled the recipe.
