- ½ onion finely chopped
- 3 cups chicken broth
- 1 10.5 oz can cream of chicken soup

Instructions
Prepare the Ingredients
- Begin by placing the diced chicken, minced garlic, black pepper, salt, chopped onion, chicken broth, cream of chicken soup, and uncooked brown rice into the crockpot. Stir thoroughly to ensure all ingredients are well combined.
Cook the Dish
- Secure the lid on the crockpot and set it to cook on high for 3.5 to 4 hours. Allow the ingredients to cook undisturbed until the rice has absorbed all the liquid and the chicken is tender.
