Ensure you use converted rice for the best texture; other varieties may become mushy during the slow cooking process. For an extra layer of flavor, consider browning the chicken thighs in a skillet before adding them to the slow cooker. (add 10 minutes) Feel free to adjust the amount of Dijon mustard to suit your taste preferences.
