I’ve been on a slow cooker kick lately. That almost always means a main dish, but it dawned on me that I could also make slow cooker fried rice, a side I was needing for some leftover slow cooked chicken. You can’t get any easier than this. No fancy rice cooker. No worrying about exact cook time. Just toss it all into the slow cooker and come back later.
This recipe for slow cooker fried rice also works great for ‘just’ rice (leave out the egg). Or you can add whatever other vegetables and seasonings you want. It doesn’t have to be traditional with peas and carrots. Broccoli, cauliflower, peanuts… you name it. All are great in slow cooker rice.
Also try my slow cooker Teriyaki chicken.
This recipe is based on a recipe from A Year of Slow Cooking.
