The first step to creating Crock Pot Teriyaki Chicken and Rice was to grease the crock pot really well.

Then I drained the juice from 2 cans of pineapple into a measuring cup.  It made one cup.

I added the pineapple juice plus one cup of water to the crock pot because I wanted to have 2 cups of liquid in total.

Then I sprinkled in some long grain white rice.

Next I cut up four chicken breasts into bite size pieces.

I poured in half of a 355ml bottle of gluten free teriyaki sauce.

Then I measured in some ground ginger, pepper and some salt.  I stirred the ingredients together slightly.

I carefully added in the cut up chicken being sure to spread it out evenly.

Then I spread the pineapple tidbits on top of the chicken.

Next I cut up enough baby carrots to make three cups.

I transferred the carrots to a piece of tinfoil.

Next I used a second piece of tinfoil to cover the carrots and make a tinfoil pouch.  This way the carrots would not overcook.

I placed the tinfoil pouch with the carrots on top of the pineapple in the crock pot.

Next I placed the lid on the crock pot.

Then I set the crock pot to cook for 8 hours on low.

Just before the Crock Pot Teriyaki Chicken and Rice was finished cooking I cut up three green onions.

After 8 hours I removed the lid along with the tinfoil pouch and stirred in the green onions.

Then I opened the tinfoil pouch and dumped in the cut up carrots. 

Finally I poured in the remainder of the teriyaki sauce.

I stirred all the ingredients together well.

Serve up Crock Pot Teriyaki Chicken and Rice and enjoy a nice, hot, comfort food meal.

Loaded with chicken, rice, pineapple and teriyaki flavouring this recipe is sure to be a hit in your home.

Enjoy every spoonful of this savoury, one pot meal.
