Crockpot Rice Bag
• 1 cup white rice
• 2½ cups boiling water
• 2 tsp Kosher salt OR 1 tsp table salt
Preparation:
If you are cooking the chicken on HIGH:
One full hour before chicken is ready, pour rice, boiling water from tea kettle, and salt into a crockpot liner/bag. Tie the bag with a knot. Place bag on top of chicken in crockpot. Cover crockpot and continue to cook on HIGH for 1 hour.
If desired, you may pour the onions and/or sauce from the crockpot on top of the white rice.
If you are cooking the chicken on LOW:
One hour and 25 minutes before chicken is ready, pour rice, boiling water from tea kettle, and salt into a crockpot liner/bag. Tie the bag with a knot. Place bag on top of chicken in crockpot. Turn the setting to HIGH. Cover crockpot and continue to cook on HIGH for 1 hour and 25 minutes.
This method works with any crockpot dish. Just keep in mind, that if you are cooking something on LOW for less than 6 hours, the crockpot will not be hot enough for this method to work, even once you switch it to HIGH.

throw some garlics in the cholent, too. we do that every week and they are so yummmmmy and mellow.
My 2nd attempt at this recipe also didn't come out like I wanted. AAARGH. I think next time I'll try again but make it in the oven. I am a slow cooker novice.

Doesn't it take forever to peel 20 garlic cloves? Plus all I have is the garlic in a jar in the fridge. Can I use that instead? If so, how much of it?

A trick to peeling garlic, separate the cloves, cut off the ends, throw the cloves in a pot, cover it and shake shake shake, the peels should come right off

Can this be done with brown rice?

I would use the whole cloves if possible. If not, then maybe 2 tbsp of the minced jarred garlic (1 tbsp if fresh minced). Rub into the chicken along with the oil, salt, pepper, paprika...

I peel garlics easily by crushing the clove with the side of my chef's knife - the peels then slip off easily. You just use the heel of your hand to put pressure on the clove. Rinsing my hands with cold water helps because the skins can get a bit sticky.

ra_mom, this recipe sounds delish! One question: I know chicken is more flavorful with the skin left on, but do you think it will come out bad if I remove the skin before I make it? It's just that I'm trying to avoid all the fat that will end up on the bottom with all the caramelized onions.

Definitely remove the skin. There is no point in having skin on chickencooked in the crockpot. All you get is way too much fat from the skin and a soggy mess from the skin. When you roast chicken with skin, skin gets crispy and keeps the meat from drying out.
But keeping skin in crockpot chicken has no purpose.

Maybe holding it together?

The skin doesn't hold the chicken together. Not sure if you are being serious. No point at all in keeping skin on chicken cooked in the crockpot - it becomes a rubbery inedible substance and just adds needless fat to the food. Feh.
I do a "rotisserie" chicken in the crockpot and remove the skin as well.
